GMA Network continues to prove its leadership online with latest metrics results showing that its news and entertainment portal, GMANetwork.com, is the number one local website in the Philippines.
According to the latest Alexa rankings, as of September 16, GMANetwork.com is the 6th most visited website in the country, just behind global online giants such as Facebook, Google, YouTube and Yahoo, and is the only Philippine website in the top 10.
This is consistent with results from another metrics provider, Effective Measure (EM). According to partial September (September 1 to 13) data from EM, GMA’s online portal (www.gmanetwork.com) remained the top website in the Philippines with pageviews reaching over 108 million. The portal was also the number one website in August with over 228 million pageviews, ahead of ABS-CBN.com, among others.
GMA News Online (www.gmanetwork.com/news) and the GMA Entertainment website (www.gmanetwork.com/entertainment) carried on being the top choice for news and entertainment content online as both websites showed significant increase in pageviews during the covered period. Both sustained their leads over competition, including ABS-CBNNews.com and ABS-CBN.com, and remained number one in their respective categories.
GMA News Online (www.gmanetwork.com/news) drove the increase in traffic for the portal and almost doubled its page views since the site launched its new, sleeker, more mobile-friendly interface in August.
GMANetwork.com – Entertainment also beat its counterpart ABSCBN Portal, as netizens consumed a continuous stream of engaging content about local celebrities and up-to-date showbiz news.
Eat Bulaga’s KalyeSerye featuring the AlDub love team of Alden Richards and Maine Mendoza further propelled the surge in pageviews, becoming one of the most sought-after content in the portal. There was also a high interest in issues related to traffic and the Bureau of Customs’ rules on balikbayan boxes.
