Written by Andy Kazeniac (contact - e-mail) -- December 28th, 2007 | Recommend ThisAs we finish up our first full year of blogging at Compete, we thought we’d take a look back. Using the wealth of Compete data to find trends, the blog has made strides this year, in both Technorati ranking (up almost 10,000 spots to better than 2,300) and readership.

Here are some of the posts that have helped get us there, ranked by page views.
- 10. Blu-Ray vs. HD-DVD: Does anyone care?
- 9. Netflix vs. Blockbuster: A heated debate between two extremists
- 8. Facebook now ranked 3rd in Page Views; MySpace down nearly 20%
- 7. Digg Overtakes Facebook; Both cross 20 million unique visitors
- 6. Xbox360 vs. Wii vs. PS3: Demand doesn’t lie
- 5. If Clicks Were Votes – Republican Candidates
- 4. Webkinz: The next Club Penguin?
- 3. Craigslist’s Dirty Little Secret

Could you share some stats with what is searched on compete? What site do people try to compare the most? I think that would be intriguing to see.

Congrats! This is a very interesting post. Have you ever done a comparison of sites that are not as “popular” and perhaps more community driven? As an example, I’d love to see a comparison of the top 10 youth sports as a compilation of aggregated top “10 or 20″ sites per sport. I appreciate that this is a more “long tail” view of web content. However, I believe that it would make the insight much more actionable!
Thanks and Happy New Year!

@Jay
Those results are what would be expected in my opinion. Minus the adult sites? Who would have thought that people would care how busy they are. #10 throws me for a loop as well.
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing the info!
