Rankings are based on audience measurement of people who have access to the
Internet from home. Reach is a measure of the unduplicated audience that
visits a property.
Ad banners that run predominantly on an advertiser’s own property are not
included in the above. The Nielsen//NetRatings audience information service
collects data from approximately 15,000 panelists as they surf the Web.
Last week’s data release incorrectly cited LoanPage.com as the No. 1 clicked
on banner. The No. 1 clicked on banner belonged to TheLoanPage.com. Nielsen//NetRatings
said it regrets the error.
