Another significant key finding is the high position of product manufacturers such as Apple and IKEA.
Online Shops Ranking based on comprehensive Data Analysis
In addition to the regions North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa, the report covers numerous countries in Europe and Asia. A separate ranking is provided for each region, based on traffic data from May 2012; online sales have also been included as a basis for selected rankings. In addition to separate rankings for different countries and regions, a global ranking, based on global traffic data, as well as further global product category rankings, have been compiled. For all online shops, the report lists name, main product category, traffic figures such as unique visitor numbers, and for selected regions and countries online sales. The data was obtained from various secondary sources. Selected rankings were individually compiled by yStats.com’s experts after extensive research.
Mass Merchants clearly dominate in North and Latin America
