Zusammenfassung	Hyperlink network analysis (HNA) treats the hyperlinks among websites as social and communicative ties and applies social-network methods to the resulting web graph. Developed within webometrics by Park, Thelwall, and others, it reads a link from one organization's site to another's as a signal of endorsement, affiliation, or attention, and maps how actors — governments, NGOs, companies, media — are connected online.	Semantic network analysis represents the meaning of a text or corpus as a network of concepts connected by their co-occurrence or grammatical proximity, then uses network-analytic measures to reveal which ideas are central, how concepts cluster, and how shared meaning is structured. In communication research it is the standard way to map the conceptual architecture of media coverage, organizational discourse, and public conversation at scale.
