This is July 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 June results and includes all deal sites from my database that meet Alexa Rank < 100,000 requirement. I am sticking with the original limit as moving to 50,000 seems to cut some interesting sites.
The top gainers this month are dealtaker.com (9.86%) and judysbook.com (9.48%), both continue to recover from the slump they got themselves into just recently. The worst performer is hot-deals.org (-20.51%) which is a very old deal site with a pretty basic design that I am sure holds together thanks to the loyal members it acquired since 2000.

This is June 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 May results and includes all deal sites from my database that meet Alexa Rank < 100,000 requirement. I am sticking with the original limit as moving to 50,000 seems to cut some interesting sites.
The top gainer this month is judysbook.com(99.02%) which jumps out of nowhere with a huge gain. Is this a sign that the site has been finally sold?
The worst performer is techbargains.com (-13.29%) but the change is within a usual fluctuation margin. Overall rank changes are mixed despite the bad economy and summer season. I honestly expected more red.

This is January 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 December results. The list has a total of 32 web sites. There are 50 more in my database that didn’t meet the Alexa Rank < 100,000 requirement.
The holidays are over and overall trend has changed from positive to negative. Average Alexa rank change this month is -1.45%. The only big mover though is judysbook.com (-37.57%) which keeps sliding down ever since they announced the sale of the website.
On the brighter side slickdeals.net (4.51%) has got back it’s Page Rank 6 after it was reduced to 5 back in October last year. Rightly so, the forum has not had a single negative month since July 2007 and is now far ahead of the runner up, fatwallet.com (-0.13%), if you trust Alexa. Compete however shows a completely different picture.
