Looks like very nice place and more convenient for our business meetings, especially the long ones. It would nice if they organize monthly networking event.

Thanks for sharing this information Tariq.

Comment on #GCC Site ranking report for 2011 By @emeasure by interactiveme

Thanks alex, I do agree with you about brands having to create more content so far the online ecosystem in the region is lacking "useful" content but is slowly getting there I think.

actually i think what would be even more interesting is finding out if they are individuals or corporations that are behind the sites. I suspect that the majority are probably sites that started as side projects of individuals, and may have grown to be a full time occupation, but if this is the case, then there is definitely a need for brands to create more content. This would help grow the online ecosystem

Thanks PITAPOLICY, I think the majority of the top 25 websites are homegrown in the MENA with the exception of websites such as MSN, BBC and goal.. But we'll dig deeper and try to get more information about the founders.

Thanks for sharing statistics on the tech industry and listing the top 100 sites. It’s very informative. The only area I would like to see additional information is the listing of the country each website was founded and if the founder is an expatriate or not. I think it would be helpful to know to what extent these start ups are homegrown Best, PITAPOLICY
