CNNMoney.com has most traffic of biz news sites

CNNMoney.com was the most visited business-destination Web site of 2006, according to 12-month averages of the Nielsen/NetRatings Financial News and Information category, a story in Direct Marketing News stated.

Nicole Smith wrote, “The site beat competitors Forbes.com, Marketwatch.com, BusinessWeek.com and WSJ.com in number of unique visitors, page views and gross-usage minutes.

“CNNMoney.com hopes to solidify this title with a site redesign that will feature new interactive business applications and tools that cater to the needs of savvy investors and professionals. It will also add live streaming stock quotes that update automatically.

“A personalization module on the home page tracks the last 10 stock quotes viewed or a registered user’s portfolio. There are live quotes and a continuous live stream of company-specific news from CNNMoney.com sources and more than 100 external news feeds.”
