Majestic SEO results

By comparing their stats I can see that IGN the more popular website shows significantly less discovery than the other two pages. This is understandable because it is a website that is very popular and has been well established for many years. While Eventhubs shows significant movement around the year 2010 which is when the website had down its re-launch and the fighting game community was becoming slightly more popular. While Didyouknowgaming shows the most movement in the last year this is mainly due to the fact that the website was created within the last two years. It is slowly gaining popularity due to the fact that it has started to branch out to other social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter and more recently has started to feature videos on YouTube.

Pagerank Results

First Website:  http://ca.ign.com/

Page Rank: 8 /10

This was my choice for the most popular website. IGN is an American based review website focused on a variety of media but oriented mostly towards video games. It is a well-established website with international following and it score very high in the page rank checker. I feel that this result is reflected in the professionalism with which the website presents its content and because the many followers it has often recur to this site for more information regarding videogames.

Second Website: http://didyouknowgaming.com/

Page Rank: 5 / 10

This website had a moderate ranking compared to IGN. You can tell by difference in the website design that IGN is professionally done while didyouknowgaming.com has a more amateur feel to it. Although it probably has solid following it does not have as many links as IGN does. I feel that is why the page rank is an accurate portrayal of this website popularity.

Third Website: http://www.eventhubs.com/

Page Rank: 4 / 10

In this case I picked a more niche topic within videogames in order to see the results for a website with medium traffic. This website specifically focuses on fighting games. I believe it received a ranking of 4 out of 10 because the user traffic and following isn’t as in depth as the first website. Also while the design of the website is mainly in blog form similar to the standardized options you receive from building any blog from the ground up while IGN has its own unique style.
