METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR AUTOMATED AND DYNAMIC MAIN DOMAIN DETERMINATION AND IDENTIFICATION

Method for automatic and dynamic determination of main domains belonging to an entity, comprising the following steps performed by a computer system (1):- a searching step (303), wherein a search list is generated by using a target name as input to a at least one first data source (3a, 3b), in particular a merge and acquisition data base or a web search engine;- an extraction step (304), wherein a list of main domains, in particular second-level domains, is extracted from the search list;- a counting step (305), wherein a first score is determined for each main domain of the list of main domains by counting the number of the appearances within the list of main domains;- a keyword generation step (306), wherein at least one validation keyword is generated on basis of the target name;- a scoring step (307), wherein at least one second score is determined for each main domain of the list of main domains by multiplying the number of appearances of the at least one validation keyword within a at least one second data source (3A, 3C, 3D, 3E) with a validation keyword factor assigned to the validation keyword; and- a calculation step (308), wherein a final score is determined for each main domain as sum of the first score and the at least one second score.
