  1. Summary of initial webometrics

  2. Web sites linking to or mentioning BBC Arabic Some indication of the impact of BBC Arabic – gained by four different Yahoo searches – details on following pages

  3. Table 2. Web sites frequently mentioning BBC Arabic in pages containing Arabic The report contains A longer list The list gives an idea Of the most important Web sites for BBC Arabic Some are Arabic Some are generic but Used for Arabic content sometimes

  6. Table 5. Web sites frequently linking to www.bbc.co.uk/Arabic/ in pages containing Arabic Using links to the alternative BBC Arabic URL

  7. Arab social network sites/blogs • We haven’t found the main ones • arabfriendz.com;arabicspace.com;kalamarab.com; arabchat.org (all small – there must be bigger sites) • Facebook may be widely used – impossible to analyse with Webometrics due to privacy • Blogs and discussion forums would be better to analyse but are difficult to find • Could analyse a list of Arabic blog hosting sites or social network sites if anyone has one??

  8. Future webometrics work? • We can run a similar analysis on “competitor” web sites that are similar to BBC Arabic • Look for sites that link to them but not to BBC Arabic? • Can also run a similar analysis on specified Arabic blog/social network sites?
