April 19th, 2011 Popular Websites For Online Coupons
Following the success of group online coupon site Groupon, similar sites have been popping up everywhere. These sites offer discount coupons of 50 to 70% off goods and services at restaurants, retail stores, spas and travel. Groupon has by far the largest valuation of any site, and has increased its visitor traffic to over 20 million this year.
LivingSocial is closing the gap fast, though. The latest valuation for the company was $3 billion and their site received 9 million unique page views in the last year. BuyWithMe is another popular site that has distinguished itself from among the hundreds of competing group coupon sites by offering more than just one coupon deal per day. BuyWithMe also allows everyone to see the selection of coupons available without first entering personal data.
