Caijing leaps in top 3 B2B sites we track in Asia

We reported last month on the tracking of B2B web sites in Asia that we have keeping monthly since December 2003. This month see's Caijing magazine's new web site push straight into the top 3 with an Alexa.com ranking of 130.

The results for this month are (last month's ranking in (brackets):

1. alibaba.com (1)
2. hc360.com (2)
3. caijing.hexun.com (-)
4. made-in-china.com (3)
5. ec21.com (5)
6. Global Sources (4)
7. chinabyte.com (6)
8. efu.com.cn (7)
9. 51fashion.com.cn (10)
10. tdctrade.com (8)

zdnet.com.cn drops out of the top 10 to 11th place from 9th last month.

The BSG rankings list 45 sites. Caijing is the only 'traditional' publisher to make it anywhere the top of the rankings. Even given the flaws in the Alexa.com methodology, this makes an interesting issue for the media companies to contemplate.
