The Popular Sites You Have Never Heard Of
from the they-get-how-many-hits? dept
When Media Metrix releases their top 50 sites there are always a few that I've never heard of. Apparently, I'm not the only one. Salon takes a look at a few ultra-popular sites that you might not have heard of. For the most part, these are pretty gimicky sites, but it's still impressive that they get as much traffic as they do.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
