The Webometrics ranking is published twice a year (at the end of January and July), covering more than 31 000 Higher Education Institutions worldwide. The aim of the ranking is to motivate both institutions and scholars to have a web presence that reflect accurately their activities. The main indicators used create a ranking list are: visibility (number of external networks linking to the institution's webpages), transparency (number of citations from Top 210 authors) and excellence (number of papers amongst the top 10% most cited in each one of the all 27 disciplines of the full database).

In the first edition of ranking this year, the University of Gdańsk was classified in 1038th position in the world and in 12th place in Poland (we have noticed improvement in both classifications).
