Calculation Method |
|
1) We take a list of keywords and phrases online users use to find artwork online. The list of keywords/phrases and the number of searches for the period of the last month is taken on the monthly basis from official publications. The list includes: art, art gallery, abstract art, landscape art, art painting... Total number is about 120 of the most popular keywords and phrases. We make several corrections for some ambiguous words.
2) Every month we make a snapshot of the first several result pages of each selected word and phrase on Google, Yahoo and MSN. Based on that information we rank websites by how many visitors they receive for each keyword/phrase. Of course it is done on the basis of the website position on the result pages. The part of the visitors for every next position is decreasing.
3) Finally, we generate a table of about 4000 art related websites summarizing traffic for all keywords/phrases for each website. Only these websites gain any significant art related traffic from the search engines.
