This is something that interests us a lot, to actually see the top used and visited websites from within Ireland. It comes as no surprise to see the big search engines and social media players there. I find it interesting that Linkedin is now more popular than Twitter. That should change the course of how companies divide their time between these platforms. It is also interesting that a buy and sell website is more popular than the closest newspaper website.
Stats are taken from Alexa.com on the 3rd October 2014 , and would be accurate for the past 90 days.
