[Toronto, CANADA] According to a recent
Media Metrix study,
Sympatico is the most visited
Canadian Web site.

The total number of unique visitors to Sympatico, the top Canadian
domain site, rose from 3.3 to 3.4 million since May, with more than
83 million page views per month.

And, for the second consecutive month, the French-language Sympatico
site is ranked first, with a total of more than a million unique
visitors. Sympatico now reaches almost one-third of all Canadian Web
users.

Sympatico attributes part of its current success to its new Lycos
applications that are gradually being introduced, combined with its
growing local and national content provided by partners.

The site’s breadth of content, news, tools, and resources span over
20 business and lifestyle categories.

Content partners include Travelocity.ca, E*Trade.ca,
workopolis, HealthCentral.com, Indigo.ca, globefund.com, and
globeinvestor.com.

The sympatico.ca portal is owned and operated by Sympatico Lycos
Inc., a joint venture between Bell ActiMedia and Lycos, with offices in
Toronto and Montreal.

The Media Metrix study, Total Canada at Home Web Use Report
was conducted during June.
