Even some of the leading shopping sites experience robust growth in traffic
The leading online shopping destinations in June were virtually unchanged from a year ago, but some of the leaders had to experience big traffic gains to retain their positions, reports Nielsen/NetRatings.
Target.com, for instance, was No. 3 in June a year ago and No. 3 this year with a 25% boost in traffic. Reflecting its overall fortunes, though, Dell.com fell from No. 4 to No. 8, a 6% decline in traffic. Travel site Travelocity dropped from No. 8 to No. 10 with a 15% decline in traffic, while rival Orbitz ranked No. 7 in June and was not among the top 10 at all in June 2006.
The Top 10 sites, with unique visitors (in millions) June 2007 and June 2006 and percent change in visitors year over year, according to Nielsen/NetRatings, were:
- eBay, 57.90, 58.03, 0%
- Amazon, 42.65, 38.31, 11%
- Target, 23.55, 18.90, 25%
- Wal-Mart Stores, 20.51, 18.13 13%

- Expedia, 16.06, 15.21, 6%
- Travelocity, 12.66, 14.83, -15%
(Unique visitors count only once each shopper who came to a site, no matter how many times that shopper visited.)
