There are now 7 news website and one individual blog in the list of Armenian websites with the highest number of visits. <\/p>\n
The top 10 list from Oct. 14 to Nov. 13 of this year (again, only including visits from Armenia) includes 8 news or similar websites; the platform Dasaran.am for students, parents, and teachers, which automatically would have a lot of visitors as it includes hundreds of schools; and Auto.am, which is gradually losing its place to the online glamour magazine Bravo.am.<\/p>\n
If we consider the same components without limiting them to visits only from Armenia then the picture changes.<\/p>\n It becomes clear that entertainment or social networking sites that are purely Armenian in nature more so interest diaspora Armenians (only 3\u201315% of visits to many of these sites are from Armenia), while users in Armenia prefer more global platforms that are outside of Armenia. <\/p>\n Samvel Martirosyan<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" News websites in Armenia’s online sphere are gradually occupying dominant positions.
