Global Audience Thanked for Website Rankings

Global Audience Thanked for Website Rankings

RTMWorld has finished the year as the leading printer and imaging supplies media website.

“We are thrilled with the result,” said David Gibbons (pictured) who has spearheaded the international communication channels for Comexposium Recycling Times (C-RT) for almost 11 years. “It comes down to the tremendous support from our audiences across the globe in almost 100 countries,” he added.

RTMWorld has enjoyed the number one position, according to third-party Alexa.com for more than two years despite the strong following on competitor media websites.

“I have always viewed Actionable Intelligence and The Recycler as our two fiercest competitors out of a field of almost 20 media and association websites that offer information to the global industry,” said Gibbons. “It helps to have a diverse array of news, views (opinion blogs), feature articles and videos, coupled together with the industry’s largest exhibition, RemaxWorld Expo in Zhuhai, China. Our magazines are there and also our Find-a-Supplier directory of suppliers. Our browsers and readers come looking for a wide range of information.”

According to Gibbons, the pandemic crippled the RemaxWorld Expo in Zhuhai because foreigners could not travel to China in 2020 or 2021. The expo ran as a smaller domestic expo. In spite of this many buyers used the Find-a-Supplier function on the website to connect with suppliers.

The RTMworld website relies on income from advertising and sponsorships to provide its content free of charge to its audiences.

According to Alexa.com, the RTMworld website received significantly more page views per user and more time was spent on the site than any of its competitor media sites.

When it came to reputation metrics, TheRecycler website attracted more external sites linking in to it than all other industry media companies put together with a score of 414. The RTMworld site had 203 external sites linking in.

Having a strong media presence of more than 20,000 followers on social media platforms such as LinkedIn and Facebook has also helped the website ranking.

The Chinese language site RTMworld.cn also ranked in the top 10 sites as did C-RT’s Indian partner site imagingsolution.in. These two countries have the largest number of industry players including buyers as well as suppliers.

Websites are ranked in such a way that lower numbers are better than high numbers. For example, Google is the number 1 ranked website in the world.

The rankings above represent the top 10 industry media websites and there are at least another 10 media and association sites as well that serve the printer imaging supplies industry.
