In the recent issue of Website Magazine, there was a Top 50 ranking of Websites for Professionals. The ranking was based upon each site’s popularity that focused on average daily unique viewers and page views over a specific period of time.

As we’re working towards simplifying social media, and many of the sites listed in Website Magazine’s Top 50 are social media and related sites, I thought it would prove quite beneficial to our readers that we include this great Top 50 list and trust it will open some eyes to the great resources available. In fact, below is an interesting statement from the corresponding article for the Top 50:

“What is most fascinating about a list of this nature is… the type of marketing and development resources it highlights.” – Website Magazine
