Indiatimes
indiatimes.com
Portal site; includes news stories under subject headings, and links to other information sources.es.
Analysis and Pointers:
a) At least half of these dozen are hardcore social networking sites.
Orkut is still doing reasonably well in India, and
Facebook has fast climbed to number 3, after the obligatory Google Search.
b) Google India is on the first position and we wonder how many choose to
surf the net in their local languages. This information can transform the way content is produced in India currently.If this data can be gathered, it will allow content creators to better plan their offerings.
c) The only two India based entities,
Rediff and
Indiatimes are web portals, with a strong presence in the
e-commerce space. These two being popular
shopping sites, this is another pointer to
increasing online expenditure habits being formed.
