As we were designing KiiRaa, I always had these questions:
- How to account for a website that has a lot of buzz for a year and then it’s gone?
- How to distinguish between websites that are just ‘a hype’ vs. websites that are really useful?
- How to give our Fans websites that are actually ‘Popular’ and are ‘Classics’?
We couldn’t answer these forever. Finally, our team came up with this brilliant idea - an algorithm (of course, the geeks on our team did it :)). We named this idea ‘KiiRaalysis’. In summary, the algorithm behind KiiRaalysis considers a number of dimensions and gives you a list of websites that can safely be considered ‘Tried and Tested’ or ‘Classics’
Remember:
- Not every site make it to KiiRaalysis
- A number of dimensions are considered before a website gets the premium spot on KiiRaalysis (including the hype factor)
- A site may drop from KiiRaalysis. Yep, it’s the complicated algorithm
- You may see the KiiRaalysis tab empty for some categories if there are no qualifying sites. Frankly, I don’t see this happening but it is possible
- Consider ‘KiiRaalysis’ as a VIP list for websites
Enjoy
[...] Q: Why is KiiRaalysis empty? A: We are brand new. KiiRaalysis will trigger based on certain actions on the site. Currently, we don’t have enough data to calculate KiiRaalysis. Once we have some data to work with, you will see sites under KiiRaalysis. To know more about KiiRaalysis click here [...]
