It is known that the degree distribution in the World Wide Web (WWW) obeys a power law whose degree exponent exhibits a fairly robust behaviour. The usual method, linear regression, used to construct the power law is not based on any, probably existing, intrinsic property of the WWW which it is assumed to reflect. In the present paper, statistical evidence is given to conjecture that at the heart of this robustness property lies the Golden Section. Applications of this conjecture are also presented and discussed. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2005.
