NEW YORK, April 1, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading financial
markets platform, Investing.com today achieved a crucial milestone
in its continued rapid growth by reaching the Alexa Top 500 Global
Sites, the definitive indicator of website popularity.
With over 20 million monthly users, 180 million monthly sessions
and over one billion monthly pageviews, Investing.com is the
most global financial outlet around, reaching users in all 196
countries in the world with its 42 international editions. The
company seeks to make financial markets data and insights
accessible and free to everyone, anywhere, bypassing the
traditionally high costs that have prevented this vision from
becoming a reality in the past.
"We are tremendously proud to break into the Alexa Top 500
global rankings. This is an important affirmation of
Investing.com's mission: to empower the individual investor by
making financial markets more accessible to people around the
world. In that sense, this milestone is just as much a celebration
for our users as it is for the organization," said Mickey Winitsky, Co-CEO of Investing.com.
Alexa, owned by Amazon, is a pioneer in the world of analytical
insight. A website's Alexa rank shows how popular that website is
relative to other websites. Alexa claims to have stored data on
online browsing behavior for over 300 million Internet pages.
Investing.com is also one of the top two financial websites
worldwide, according to both Alexa and SimilarWeb, and has the No.
1-ranked financial markets app on Google Play. With over 200,000
financial instruments covered, Investing.com offers unlimited
access to cutting-edge financial market tools such as customized
portfolios, personal alerts, calendars, calculators, and financial
insights, completely free of charge.
Today, Investing.com's inclusion on the Alexa Top 500 Global
Sites represents exponential advancement from the platform's
standing less than seven years ago. Founded in 2007, the company
made the most significant move in its history in December 2012, buying the Investing.com domain
name for $2.45 million, the
second-largest domain purchase of that year. The move significantly
shaped the organization's rapid rise from startup to industry
leader, as the platform became a must-use site for traders and
global investors when monitoring all things related to financial
markets in real-time.
In recent years, Investing.com's traffic has skyrocketed from 50
million pageviews per month in 2013, to 400 million in 2016, to
more than 1 billion today.
"All of our growth throughout the years has occurred
organically," said Shlomi Biger,
Co-CEO of Investing.com. "From the very beginning, the company has
always focused on optimizing user experience and providing the best
product available. The future growth of Investing.com will
undoubtedly follow the same formula as we continue to offer users
an unparalleled free resource on the financial markets."
