The Webometric ranking of the World’s universities done by Cybermetrics Lab is based on metrics such as web size, rich files, Google Scholar and link (visibility).

Webometric is based on two indicators:

a. Volume of published materials of institutions/individual on the web,

b. The visibility and impact of the web pages measured by the sitation(site citations) or links they receive.

6. Preparation For the Next Webometric Ranking

Recomendations

The recommendation will be directed to the three stakeholders

of the program; the students, institution and ITF.

A. ITF

ITF should make monthly allowance available for students at

time due so as to put an end to financial difficulties that may

arise during the course of the program.

B. STUDENT

The idea of the program as “just” SIWES should becorrected as it is a major step towards developing anycareer.

Prospective students should seek internship inestablishment with goals similar to their Aim.

Students should prepare themselves technically for thechallenge of the IT world.

Students should show positive disposition to all tasksthat they may be assigned during the industrialtraining

Students should start surveying potential companiesearly so that the difficulties of finding placement willbe combed.

C. INSTITUTION

The University should try to collaborate with some industries in order to get easy placement for students.

I. The following are suggested to improve Fountain University Wireless network

There should be a dedicated bandwidth for student wireless net work

A stable power supply should be ensured for the NOC to prevent the network from going down

Ensure internet connectivity in the University by Using Mikrotic Grooves and Omni directional Antennas for distribution of network to Various Access point in the university

The university should ensure a proper Monitoring and maintenance of the University wireless network

ii. The following are suggested to improve Fountain University Website visibility

Establish a Web Unit to manage the school websiteEnsure the university website is updated regularlyThe University Website should have a mobile phone

version because about 60% of Internet users in Nigerianow access the internet through mobile devices

The use of RSS feeds so that other websites can subscribeto site updates from fountain website

Create a sub domain for all colleges, and units in theuniversity

Language translation options should be enabled forinternationalization of the University e.g. Arabic,French, Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, Dutch etc.

Use online polls to gather more information onwhat the people want from the site
