It provides indicators for more than 12,000 universities worldwide. The ranking system is based on how strongly a university is present in the web by its own web domain, sub-pages, rich files and published scholarly articles. The ranking system is premised on the fact that web presence is a reliable signal of the global performance and prestige of the universities and could serve as an indirect way to measure efficiency of universities in the performance of their tripartite function of teaching, research and knowledge transfer. Chief Okwun Omeaku, the Acting Public Relations Officer of the UNN, made this known at Nsukka. The Acting PRO revealed that the improved rating of the institution was not unconnected with the enhanced research efforts in the university following the Vice-Chancellor’s encouragement and financial reward system.
