3. Top 2000 Global Online Shops 2012
Methodology
„Top 2000 Global Online Shops 2012” by yStats.com is produced in a holistic approach and
contains relevant information about the leading online shops in selected countries and regions
worldwide.
• The holistic approach ensures that all relevant regions and countries worldwide are considered and covered. The rankings are
listed by regions and/or countries.
• A global ranking is included which gives an overview of the leading online shops worldwide.
• The following countries are included: UK, France, Spain, Italy, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Russia,
Poland, Czech Republic, Ukraine, Hungary, Slovakia, Turkey, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, Japan, South Korea, China,
India, Australia, and South Africa. These countries are identified by yStats.com as leading B2C E-Commerce/Online-Shopping
markets worldwide.
• The following regions are included: North America, Latin America, Middle East, and Africa. Regional rankings were compiled
because of the availability of regional sales data (e.g. North America) or because of the lack of sufficient data for each country.
• After the country rankings, 14 global rankings were included which show the leading onlin shops based on their main product
categories.
• The rankings are based on traffic data from May 2012 unless otherwise stated. In the latter case, the rankings are based on
online sales. For some countries and regions, two rankings are included, one based on online sales, and the other one based on
traffic data.
• Some rankings were derived from secondary sources. Besides this secondary market research approach, some rankings were
compiled by yStats.com based on own research. However, these rankings do not claim to be complete.
• Every secondary source used for the compilation of the rankings was checked and verified as relevant, accurate and up-to-date
by our team of researchers. Sources include business reports, business and company databases, company registries, consulting
and primary market research companies. These sources were used to include financial data on the online shops in addition to the
traffic data.
• The rankings include online shops of store-based retailers, catalog/home-shopping retailers, as well as Internet pure players.
• Almost all online shops included in the rankings sell goods. However, some rankings include online shops that belong to one of
the following categories: digital media, travel, auctions or daily deals. Rankings with those online shops are labeled accordingly.
• yStats.com analyzed all online shops and assigned them to one of the following product categories: Apparel/Accessories, Auto-
motive Parts/Accessories, Books/Music/Video, Computers/Electronics, Flowers/Gifts, Food/Drug, Hardware/Home Improvement,
Health/Beauty, Housewares/Home Furnishings, Jewelry, Mass Merchant, Office Supplies, Specialty/Non-Apparel, Sporting Goods
and Toys/Hobbies.
• Each ranking provides additional traffic information and data on the online shop such as unique visitors (users and cookies),
audience reach, page views, total visits, average visits per cookie and average time on site. Traffic data was included for the
relevant country/region as well as worldwide. Traffic on a country basis is more relevant if a single country is being analyzed.
Furthermore, the traffic data on a global basis ensures international comparability.
