This is March 2008 revision of the Popular Deal Sites list. You can find the last month revision of the list here.
The change in rating shows the difference compared to February results. The list has a total of 25 web sites which is 4 less than the last month. There are 56 more in my database that didn’t meet the Alexa Rank < 100,000 requirement.
This a really bad month for all deal sites. None had a positive Alexa rank growth, and most of them had a double digit decline. I attribute the overall downward trend to two things, (1) the holiday season is now completely out of the 3 months rolling window that the rankings reflect, (2) online shopping is down due to the economic recession.
dealtaker.com (-40.93%) had a really bad month. Is the magic Neal Rapoport has projected on it starting to fade out now as DealTaker is being sold? But the worst result comes from another site. gottadeal.com (-185.05%) has been the worst performer for the second month in the row. They went from #14 to #20 in this month list.
