Rankings have always attracted the attention of many towards themselves. People have always liked to know for example what, who, which city or country have the highest or the lowest rankings from different aspects, so that they can examine, compare and improve those aspects according to the result of rankings. Meanwhile, with the increase of attention to universities and post-graduate institutions, university ranking has gained larger importance. University rankings-not considering their problems- is very important in attracting the attention of those who are after finding and choosing a suitable university for their further education. On the other hand, connection with websites has also drawn the attention of the web researchers to itself. Web evaluation studies, as part of web studies, is possible through the web links, which have been founded by Ingoursen. Web researchers have understood that links are potentionally capable of revealing scientific and evaluative relationships of the web. Correlation between the geographical distances of universities and researches performed in them, and a survey of the relation of web links and research products are kinds of scientific relationships which have been used in the scientific products of these organizations and educational centers. A survey of “valid links”, that is, links which reaffirm the existence of a relation between websites, shows that there is improvement in the web researchers, that of web links. However, although because of the differences in the types of media we can not exactly conform to former theories in events such as journal documentation and research products with a calculation of links and rate of university research products, such great differences cannot decrease the importance of surveying the relation of the rate of links and research products. A survey of the intentions behind creating links by the producers of web pages has almost decreased the complications of this issue.
