Popular price comparison sites – July 2007

This is July 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 June results. The list has a total of 34 web sites compared to 35 last month. One more price comparison engine is out, this time it is streetprices.com who joins 14 more sites in my database that don’t meet Alexa Rank < 100,000 requirement.

calibex.com (21.71%), the NexTag company, is leading today’s list closely followed by pronto.com (21.39%) who have recently launched a site redesign (currently in beta) featuring such social features as product ranking by users and product reviews.

The worst result comes from activeshopper.com (-86.42%) which suddenly drops to the last position in the list. Does anyone have an explanation to this?
