Resumen de Características de la Web de España
Ricardo Baeza Yates, Vicente López, Carlos Castillo
In September and October 2004, a massive harvesting of pages from the web of Spain was carried out. This effort permitted us to find over 16 million pages, on approximately 300,000 web sites, which have been analysed in terms of contents, connectivity and technologies. The analysis of the data reveals several statistical similarities with observations made about the characteristics of the web by other studies conducted on subsets of the global web, mostly related to the presence of power laws. On the qualitative side, the role of academic and governmental centres is fundamental for enhanced connectivity in navigating among the sites of the web of Spain.
