Arab social network sites/blogs
• We haven’t found the main ones– arabfriendz.com;arabicspace.com;kalamarab.com;
arabchat.org (all small – there must be bigger sites)
• Facebook may be widely used – impossible to analyse with Webometrics due to privacy
• Blogs and discussion forums would be better to analyse but are difficult to find
• Could analyse a list of Arabic blog hosting sites or social network sites if anyone has one??

Future webometrics work?
• We can run a similar analysis on “competitor” web sites that are similar to BBC Arabic– Look for sites that link to them but not to BBC
Arabic?
• Can also run a similar analysis on specified Arabic blog/social network sites?
