Well its no suprise that the most visited
websites in Nigeria include those of Facebook
(Expected), Twitter (On the increase), Conduit (Surprisingly),
Youtube
(Tube lovers), BBC online (News) ,
Goal.com (Football fans) and not
forgetting Google (Synonymous to SEARCH…*I hope their robots are
indexing this*)
Analyzing these websites, one would notice that the top ranking
indigenous site includes nairaland.com (#1) which offers a broad
discussion forum for Nigerians. The 2nd, 3rd and 5th position of the top
indigenous website respectively belongs to Punch Newspaper, Vanguard
Newspapers, Sun News belongs to which is largely due to their readily
available contents (news). GTbank is at the 4th because of the bank’s
online and offline popularity in the country.
One may derive the conclusion that Nigerians tend to “face their
book”, tweet, and send mails via their gmail, yahoo, msn(hotmail) dot
com’s addresses and also video lovers tend to visit youtube (The booming
music industry) .
