Abstract

Methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture to rank a web site are disclosed herein. An example method to rank the influence of a web site involves receiving a topic term, filtering out a post that is not relevant to the topic term from a first plurality of posts to a web site, determining a number of inbound links to the web site based on the topic term, determining a time between the inbound links to the web site based on the topic term, and generating a rank of the web site based on the number of inbound links and the time between the inbound links.
