o How your page was selectedEach 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 50 pages selected as Key Resources for the Alzheimer's Disease topic, your page ranked 27th. 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.
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.
o Do I need to do anything?You do not need to take any action to qualify for the award. Your page has already been selected and is already listed as a Key Resource. Pages that rank near the top of the list of Key Resources will almost certainly remain Key Resources on subsequent rebuilds of the index. Pages that are ranked near the bottom of the list may be "knocked off" the list or be assigned to different topics on later rebuilds. No action you take, other than steps to increase the popularity of your web pages, will have any effect on future selection. Once again, congratulations on your award!
