All the scientific production, formal and informal, draft or definitive, published or unpublished, should be available from a unique web site.

Open your main Dspace config file and look for the '''xmlui.google.analytics.key''' setting. Enter your google analytics key.

===Google Sitemap===
 
Frist, edit the DSpace config file and setup sitemaps as follows.
 
<pre>
 
#### Sitemap settings #####
 
# the directory where the generated sitemaps are stored
 
sitemap.dir = ${dspace.dir}/sitemaps
 
 
 
#
 
# Comma-separated list of search engine URLs to 'ping' when a new Sitemap has
 
# been created.  Include everything except the Sitemap URL itself (which will
 
# be URL-encoded and appended to form the actual URL 'pinged').
 
#
 
sitemap.engineurls = http://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/ping?sitemap=http://scholar.sun.ac.za/htmlmap
 
 
 
# Add this to the above parameter if you have an application ID with Yahoo
 
# (Replace REPLACE_ME with your application ID)
 
# http://search.yahooapis.com/SiteExplorerService/V1/updateNotification?appid=REPLACE_ME&url=
 
#
 
# No known Sitemap 'ping' URL for MSN/Live search
 
</pre>
 
 
 
Second, go to the [http://www.google.com/webmasters Google Webmasters] page and create an account. When asked to submit a sitemap use '''htmlmap''' as the sitemap URL. After the correct setup, you can view your own sitemaps by pointing your browser to:
 
http://%my-repository-hostname%/htmlmap
 
For example you can view SUNScholar sitemaps by clicking on the link below.

Introduction

It is very important that you ensure that the repository is properly configured so that accurate and authoritative metrics can be accomplished.

The metrics services should be able to reference unique persistent machine-readable identifiers and detailed metadata for openly accessible digital research artifacts in the repository.

Publishing public data in an open, standard, machine-readable format is a best practice.
