... "Youth of
America / Lighthouse Sanctuary Youth Found"
was selected as a Links2Go "Key Resource" in the Web Internet Service Providers
topic!
How your page was selected:
Each quarter, Links2Go samples millions of web pages to determine which pages are
most heavily cited by web pages authors, such as yourself. The most popular pages are
downloaded and automatically categorized by topic. At most 50 of the pages related to a
topic are selected as "Key Resources." Out of 26 pages selected as Key
Resources for the Web Internet Service Providers topic, your page ranked 10th. For
topics like Music, where there are a large number of interested authors and related pages,
it is harder to achieve selection as a Key Resource than for a special-interest topic,
such as Quantum Physics.
The Links2Go Key Resource award differs from other awards in two important ways. First,
it is objective. Most awards rely on hand selection by one or more "experts,"
many of whom have only looked at tens or hundreds of thousands of pages in bestowing their
awards. Selection for these awards means no more than that one person, somewhere, noticed
your page and liked it enough to select it. The Key Resource award, on the other
hand, is based on an analysis of millions of web pages. Any group or organization
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.
Once again, congratulations on your award!
