Webometrics is an automated university ranking system that assesses higher education institutions based on their digital presence and the visibility and impact of their academic resources. The ranking is derived from three key indicators: Visibility (Impact), which measures the influence of an institution's websites and online presence; Transparency (Openness), which evaluates the openness of academic resources through Google Scholar profiles; and Excellence, which measures research performance based on scientific publications and citations indexed in the Scopus database.

The current Webometrics Ranking continues to apply the same methodology as in the previous editions without Presence indicator (digital content volume), using a 3-indicator framework: Visibility (Impact) carries the highest weighting at 50%, followed by Excellence at 40%, and Transparency (Openness) at 10%. Under the Transparency indicator, Webometrics has further expanded the number of researcher profiles assessed in Google Scholar to 290 profiles among Top 21-310.
