Abstract

One of the problems for investigating the informative production of syndication channels is counting on the sufficient number of sources from the same domain, subject or area of knowledge, to compile a sample. This is a consequence of the dispersion of information sources on the Web; the researcher’s difficulty in knowing all the available resources; and the difficulty in extracting and locating the links of syndication channels in every relevant web site or Internet resource that is discovered. This article discusses the method to extract and compile syndication channels through the composition of seeds using a web crawler, and the configuration and subsequent processing of the obtained links.
