Amazon Remains King Of The Web Retailing Hill
After losing the No.1 title in Internet shopping to ebay.com in May, Amazon.com
made a comeback in June as the most popular shopping site on the web, with a
reach of 14.7%, according to PC Data Inc., a leading Internet market research
firm. Overall, there were few changes in the top 10 shopping sites in June. CDNOW.com
continues to experience healthy growth with its reach increasing to 7.5% from
3.9% in April. Internet music shopping and download site mp3.com also
moved up to the top 10 list with a reach of 4.5%.
All top 20 shopping sites surpassed a 3% reach figure, which translates into
at least 1.3 million users in the month of June.
Two new additions to the top 20 list are eToy.com and buy.com, who made their first
appearance since March 1999. These two sites displaced other popular sites such
as egghead.com and freeride.com, whose reach dropped to below 3% in
June.
PC Data Online estimates shopping traffic as the total number of unique users who
went to at least one of the top 200 shopping-related sites in June.
