- | Welcome to Measure The Web. Empirical studies on the web require researchers to navigate a complex landscape of experimental design choices, ranging from selecting a representative sample of websites to choosing the appropriate crawling technology. Similarly, analyzing results involves critical decisions, such as website categorization and statistical methodology. Too often, these decisions are made based on limited guidance, informal advice, or trial and error, despite their profound impact on research outcomes and their applicability. | + | Empirical studies on the web require researchers to navigate a complex landscape of experimental design choices, ranging from selecting a representative sample of websites to choosing the appropriate crawling technology.

Measure The Web aims to bridge this gap, by providing evidence-based guidance for empirical web measurement studies. The platform evaluates design choices and their implications by referencing relevant academic publications or conducting original studies where necessary. | Measure The Web aims to bridge this gap, by providing evidence-based guidance for empirical web measurement studies.
