About The Web Conference

The Web Conference (long known as WWW) is the premier venue for research on the web itself: search and recommendation, social networks, web mining, security and privacy on the web, the creator economy, and web-scale systems.

Papers are typically due around October for the spring conference. Its breadth makes it a strong home for interdisciplinary work — economics, social science, and policy angles on web phenomena regularly appear alongside systems and ML papers.
