Three Sites on the Internet With Yahoo and MSN
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 18, 2005--In just two years,
MySpace.com, the leading lifestyle portal, has surpassed eBay, AOL and
Google to become the third ranked web domain in terms of page views,
according to comScore Media Metrix(a). MySpace, a place where people
put their lives online and connect and communicate around common
interests, had more than 11.5 billion page views last month alone and
continues to grow by an average of 150,000 new members daily.
"Our users come to MySpace to manage their everyday lives, from
staying in touch with friends, to discovering new trends and
entertainment," said Chris DeWolfe, chief executive officer,
MySpace.com. "Now advertisers and the business community are eager to
see where we'll go and we have plenty of content announcements and
expansion plans coming down the pipeline that are sure to exceed the
expectations of both our users and partners."
Recently named by AdWeek as the "third hottest web destination
online," MySpace had more than 24 million unique users for the month
of October(a) and targets a core demographic of 16-34 year olds,
according to Nielsen//NetRatings.
"MySpace has evolved the way people are communicating online and 37
million people have already created their own communities," said Tom
Anderson, president, MySpace.com. "The site's impact on users is
undeniable, and it's been exciting to watch MySpace's cultural impact
on our users' lives."
The site maintains its unique and authentic user experience by
consistently delivering original entertainment content that members
can both create and discover. More than 660,000 bands have created
profiles, uploaded music, listed tour dates and connected with fans on
MySpace. Earlier this week, MySpace announced that it is streaming
never-before-heard confessions from Madonna for her latest album,
"Confessions on a Dancefloor," and the company also released its first
album, "MySpace Records Compilation CD: Volume I."
