In March, the Aliexpress website remained the e-commerce site with the greatest "reach," according to data from Marktest's netAudience service.

An analysis of the audience measurement system shows that it reached one million and 215 thousand individuals, representing 14,2% of residents on the Continent aged 15 and over.

Fnac's website maintained its second position, with 1.192 individuals. Worten, Booking, Continente, and Amazon also surpassed one million visitors on PC.

In terms of traffic volume, the Aliexpress website also led the way, registering around 155 million pageviews. It was followed by eBay, with 61 million, and Continente, with around 47 million pageviews.

All media analyzed here are measured solely on PC browsing, via the netAudience meter panel.
