Using the services of alexa.com, what are the most popular genealogy/family history websites?
Ancestry`s various sites are top ranked in the US. UK and Canada.
I was surprised at the relative popularity of the social network sites myheritage and geni (both well behind facebook).
Library and Archives Canada could not be ranked as Alexa only ranks the top level site gc.ca.
In software related sites familyreemaker ranks above legacyfamilytree and rootsmagic.
Americanancestors, site of the NEHGS, is the top society site.
The high ranking of genealogyintime, Ottawa based, surprised me.
Included is jiapu.com, the largest online resource for Chinese family histories
And the low rank of bifhsgo.ca was also a surprise, substantially down from previous rankings, likely the result of it having been recently offline. There are quite a few lower ranking genealogy sites which are omitted.
