Top 20 Sites in the Philippines (Based on Alexa.com)

Facebook tops the list of sites in the Philippines in terms of traffic rank. That is not very surprising, right? Almost everybody now has a Facebook account and the recent change of the Friendster web design only motivated more people to join in the FB mania. By the way, Friendster is now on Top 6, and joining these top social networking sites is Twitter at No.11.



Five sites on the top list are Search Engines - Yahoo.com (Top 2), Google.com.ph (Top 3), Google.com (Top 5), MSN (Top 18) and WindowsLive (Top 20), and three are blog sites (wow, I hope that means the Pinoy blogging community is getting bigger!) - Blogger (Top 7), Multiply (Top 9), and Wordpress (Top 10).

Wikipedia also made it to the list being No.8 and YouTube rocks at No.4 (I wonder who will get a big break this 2010 through this video site.. hmmm).

As proof of the fact that the ‘Kodakan’ tradition is still a hit in the country, Photobucket ranked No. 14 and Flicker at No.17. I should also mention that the one of a kind entry here is Sulit.com.ph at No. 12.


Oh, and I also have to note that two of the sites are online game sites - Zynga.com (Go FarmVille, FishVille, Cafe World, and Mafia Wars!!! Weeee!) and Y8.com.

Sadly, the remaining two are porn sites so mommies, please check on the websites that your kids often visit. Teenage pregnancy rates in the country are already quite alarming and so are the statistics on abortion and sexual abuse. Imagine, every year, 64,000 Pinoy teenagers have abortions and by the age of 20, 25% of the Filipino youth are already young moms.

@edelweiza: Yup. I think it's because it gives room for more real time communication. Thanks for visiting my site :)

@claudia: Thanks for dropping by :) Will think about your offer.. but I think my blog doesn't require much advertising at the moment since it still doesn't feature affiliate ads and write-ups now.

Mommy Moments: Welcoming MY TWINS :)

In just a few weeks (probably less than 3), we will be welcoming the twins - a boy and a girl. The target date is to reach my 38th week which is Feb 20. I hope I can make it through and successfully reach that target though I'm also a bit delighted by the idea of my twins being born a bit earlier - perhaps Feb 14 :) (but if that will cause them harm - in any way whatsoever, then away with you v-day bday thoughts!) Anyway, my eldest - my lovely bubbly Yana - just turned one two days ago and I am really not sure how she would welcome the twins. I just hope she'd be able to manage it. Right now, I know that she's quite protective of - and very much connected to - me. I can still remember how scared she was and how loudly she cried when my ob placed a doppler on my tummy and she heard the heartbeats. She might have assumed that the doctor was hurting me somehow so she started crying and she tried to pull my ob away from me. At night (or should I say early morning), she won'

Real Leaf Paparazzi

I have never been a fan of sodas. Nor did I ever engage in a one-night spree with beer or vodka. Instead, I have always loved ice-cold tea. Drinking tea is a habit I’ve developed since I was in college and my ‘tea-addictivity’ has never wavered since. I’ve patiently put up with teabags for years but fortunately, bottled-up teas are now available and distributed in heaps. These days, I’m much fond of Nestea’s Real Leaf Tea and I share this fondness with my two closest “allies” – my partner in life and my younger brother. W hat follows is our one big atte mpt to encourage more people to engage in our quest for a Real Life with Coca Cola’s Real Le af tea (and of course, an attempt to get a prize from Nuffnang's exciting contest- Real Leaf Paparazzi!)… This is the typical “Juan” trying to have a Real Life. With the help of the Real Leaf tea, my brother 'John' tries to stay 100% on. He tries to relieve the exhaustion, stress, and anxiety brought by… (a) a hard day’s work as a n

Life In Taborea: The World Of Runes Of Magic

Runes of Magic (RoM) is a free massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) developed by the Taiwanese developer Runewaker Entertainment. It's here in the Philippines now, and has been in Open Beta since January 8. My brother is addicted to the game and I have read a lot of rave reviews about it. The most frequent of which is the fact that its graphics are very appealing and quite realistic. S et in a fantasy world filled with magic, monsters, and heroes, it gives you an out of this world experience as you try out a variety of quests and battle with f ellow players and monsters. Whenever you take on your character - may it be a rogue, mage, priest, warrior, or knight, you will feel as if you're leading a double life. Those who have loved DOTA and World of Warcraft will definitely enj oy this game more.
