Forex portals total traffic grew 30% during 2010

Once again Arnaud of mataf.net brings us his forex portals traffic statistics and the latest report shows an incredible growth of 30% in visits to all Forex portals year on year. The global number of visits has grown from 14.5 million to 18.9 million in one year = +31%.

Biggest gains were:

• Forexpros +184%,
• myfxbook +169%
• forexcrunch +150%
• trader-forex.fr (+25%)
• mataf.net and forexmagnates (+20%)
• forexfactory (+17%)

Looks like most of more mature sites grew less than the average. Global social networks (I don't agree with the term Arnaud uses but still) has grown 68% (double the overall market growth) with myfxbook +169% and currensee 27% contributing to the growth while mt4stats's traffic crashed by 39%.

Biggest 'losers' in traffic were:

• fx360.com (-41%)
• mt4stats (-39%)
• forex-tsd (-26%)
• babypips (-13%)
