Popular price comparison sites - December 2007

Update: for the latest revision of this list go to Popular price comparison sites - October 2008.

This is December 2007 revision of the Popular Price Comparison web sites list. You can find the last month revision of the list here.

The change in rating shows the difference compared to November results. The list has a total of 33 web sites and there are 16 more sites in my database that don’t meet Alexa Rank < 100,000 requirement.

retrevo.com (31.99%) had the best showing this month still riding the success of the last month redesign.

The worst number comes from jellyfish.com (-28.48%). I am not sure what is going on here. Could Microsoft’s acquisition of Jellyfish have something to do with the plunge?
