How the WWWPedia Index works

The WWWPedia Index is a simple visibility signal for each website inside a country and category list. It helps readers compare entries quickly without replacing the full ranking, description, or traffic estimate.

Scale

1-100

Higher values indicate stronger visibility within the current list. The score is relative to the selected country and category.

Position

65%

List position carries the largest weight, because a website ranked near the top should be easy to recognize as a leading entry.

Traffic

35%

Estimated monthly traffic adds context. The calculation uses a logarithmic scale so very large sites do not overwhelm the rest of the list.

Formula

A blended visibility index

For each list, WWWPedia normalizes position and traffic into comparable values, then blends them into one score:

WWWPedia Index = (position score * 0.65) + (traffic score * 0.35)

The final result is rounded and displayed from 1 to 100. Labels such as Leading, Established, Notable, and Listed are descriptive bands, not manual reviews or endorsements.

Important note

What the index means

The WWWPedia Index is designed for discovery and comparison. It reflects visibility inside a specific WWWPedia list based on ranking position and available traffic estimates. It does not measure safety, ownership, editorial quality, legal compliance, or user satisfaction.
