Great news for MarketTaiwan! We just received news that tw.shop.com is the 25th largest website in Taiwan. This rapid and impressive growth is only the beginning; with the new and look and feel of the site, combined with the SHOP name and now over 1 million products in the search, we expect more achievements on the horizon and news like this to keep rolling in!
Just this past March, the MarketTaiwan Powerline Magazine ran an article about how the site was in the top FIFTY largest in Taiwan, according to Alexa. The following is an excerpt from that article:
A known resource for analyzing web traffic and patterns, Alexa examines user and traffic statistics through the collection of data from a diverse range of traffic data sources. Computing the traffic rankings by analyzing web usage, the data is counted, computed, sifted and sorted until the traffic rankings are published through Alexa.
“The traffic rank is based on three months of aggregated historical traffic data from millions of Alexa Toolbar users and data obtained from other, diverse traffic data sources, and is a combined measure of page views and users (reach). As a first step, Alexa computes the reach and number of page views for all sites on the Web on a daily basis. The main Alexa traffic rank is based on a value derived from these two quantities averaged over time (so that the rank of a site reflects both the number of users who visit that site as well as the number of pages on the site viewed by those users). The three-month change is determined by comparing the site’s current rank with its rank from three months ago.” (Alexa.com)
We anticipate that with the expanding usage of social media sites by our UFOs (Facebook, Twitter, Google+, etc), that MarketTaiwan will see even heavier promotion and even more exponential growth! To stand out among other top 25 sites such as Yahoo, Facebook and Google is such an accomplishment, and shows that MarketTaiwan is poised for continued growth and success in the months ahead.
