Data presented in this document have been systematically collected since September 2008. The document is updated four times a year, i.e. at the beginning of every March, June, September and December). The document systematically monitors and collects information about the relative online rank (i.e. the so called 'PageRank' [en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PageRank]) of the top 30 Asian Studies' institutions, organizations, specialist information resources, and research networks indexed by the Google Search Engine [www.google.com].

The PageRank of a given web address measures the site's relative importance within the world-wide archipelago of other web sites dealing with a given topic. The lower the PageRank, the greater is the deemed importance or relevance of the indexed site.

The information presented below reflects the online rankings between September 2008 and December 2010 and deals with the thirty best scoring web sites located within the universe of all known to www.google.com web sites relevant to a query concerning "asian"+"studies".

The overall number of the 'asian studies' web pages that are recorded (and ranked) by the Google Search Engine fluctuates with the passage of time. The statistics below is listed in reverse chronological order:
