    1. Size (S). Number of pages recovered from four search engines
    2. Visibility (V). Nnumber of external links (inlinks or site citations) to the site.
    3. Rich Files (R). Volume of Adobe Acrobat (.pdf), Adobe PostScript (.ps), Microsoft Word (.doc) and Microsoft Powerpoint (.ppt) documents in the web site.
    4. Scholar (Sc). Number of papers and citations in Google Scholar.

    Times Higher Education Ranking System

    • Research — volume, income and reputation (worth 30 per cent)
