In this paper we present a novel method to discover cyber communities from the WWW. A cyber community is a set of highly connected web pages in the WWW, which share the similar topics or interests. The WWW can be modeled as a huge scale-free network graph. Discovering cyber communities is converted to trawling the corresponding web graph to search for approximate p-quasi complete graph. The algorithm presented in this paper considers the characteristics of the scale-free network graphs and is based on the neighbourhood information of the vertex in the p-quasi complete graph in the web graph.
