Published 12 May 2011 in cs.SI, cs.DL, and physics.soc-ph | (1105.2443v1)
Abstract: In this paper we examine if hyperlink-based (webometric) indicators can be used to rank academic websites. Therefore we analyzed the interlinking structure of German university websites and compared our simple hyperlink-based ranking with official and web-independent rankings of universities. We found that link impact could not easily be seen as a prestige factor for universities.
