Abstract
The article studies collaboration among Iranian News Agencies Websites using Webometrics methods. In this research, in-links and colinks to Iranian news agencies websites were analyzed to determinate the visibility and collaboration among the web sites. Using Yahoo directory 21 Iranian news agencies websites were studied to extract in-links & Colinks. Clustering and multi dimensional scaling methods were applied to analyze data. Results showed that Iranian News Agencies Websites are grouped in five clusters and exchange information and news with each other. The data revealed that those news agencies that are more identical in terms of their subject areas collaborate more. The research also revealed that only ANA News Agency website (Islamic Azad University News Agency) had not been clustered to other Iranian news agencies websites. Also reveals increasing collaboration among Iranian news agencies websites. This can contribute to accuracy and comprehensiveness of the news broadcast.
