Abstract

The results of the 2013 analysis of visibility of the museum web sites of Catalonia are presented out of the data obtained by the explorer DigiDocSpider in Google. The main goal is to acquire the necessary data to deepen into the identification of good practices that help improve the visibility of any museum web site. The methodology has focused on a double perspective: comparative and evolutionary with previous research. An increase of visibility of the Catalan museums from 2006 to 2013 has been proved. However, a slight loss of visibility has been confirmed if we compare it to the period 2009-2013. As a conclusion, the biggest museums are better prepared and obtain better results, showing a very significant distance with those small local museums.
