2012 top Colleges and Universities in Africa!

The current ranking is based upon an algorithm including three unbiased and independent web metrics extracted from three different search engines:
*Google Page Rank
*Alexa Traffic Rank
*Majestic Seo Referring Domains. Web metrics data are normalised to a scale of 0 to 100, taking into consideration the logarithmic nature in which both the Google Page Rank and the Alexa Traffic Rank are expressed. The three normalised values are aggregated based on a weighted average algorithm which generates the final score and web ranking. Below are the ranking.
