WINS 'LINKS TO GO'
MILLENNIUM COMMENDATION
COASTWEEK
-- JUNE
2000 - HOT NEWS OFF THE WEB !!!
COASTWEEK'S award
winning web site
:
www.coastweek.com
has received an
'Award
for Excellence' from 'Links2Go'
a media research and
analysis group in them United States.
Each quarter,
'Links2Go' samples millions of web pages such as Coastweek to determine
which pages are most heavily cited by web pages authors.
A 'Links2Go' spokesman
said at that time:
"The most popular
pages are downloaded and automatically categorized by topic.
"The Links2Go Key
Resource award is based on an analysis of millions of web pages.
"Any group or
organisation who conducts a similar analysis will arrive at similar
conclusions.
"When Links2Go
says your page is a Key Resource, we mean that your page is one
of the most relevant pages related to a particular topic on the web
today, using an objective statistical
measure applied to an extremely large data
set.
"Second, the Key
Resource award is exclusive.
"We get literally
hundreds of people requesting that their page be added to one
or more topics per week.
"All of these
requests are denied.
"The only way to
get listed as a Key Resource is to achieve enough popularity
for our analysis to select your pages automatically.
"We do not accept
fees, offers of link exchanges, free advertising, or bartered
livestock as inducements to add new sites to our lists.
"Fewer
than one page in one thousand will ever be selected as a Key Resource."
The Coastweek
online website is at present hosted by AfricaOnline Kenya Limited.
