Glam Media, Inc., the category leader in women online, today announced
that Women's Community, along with Politics, was ranked as the
fastest-growing Internet categories of 2007 according to comScore Media
Metrix. Glam became the market leader in June of 2007, overtaking
iVillage/NBC for the highest in reach in women. Glam Media was also the
fastest-growing in the Media Metrix Top 50 properties in 2007, fueled by
its distributed media network of 450 Glam owned and operated sites,
publishers, media partner websites and blogs.
"Glam Media as a vertical network of 450 publishers and owned and
operated web sites is propelling one of top two fastest-growing categories
on the Web-Women," said Samir Arora, chairman and CEO of Glam Media. "We
founded Glam on the belief that the Web needs to be more focused on women's
needs. The rapid rise of the Women's category and Glam's rank as number one
within the category, reinforces the fact there is large-scale fragmentation
in this space. Glam's pioneering distributed media model has lead to the
creation of new opportunities for brand advertisers and publisher alike."
