Country ranking
Looking at the top five geographical traffic sources for international firms (non-Japanese brokers), we get a mostly unsurprising picture this month. The ranking stayed generally the same as with the UK on top, the US in second place and Germany finishing the top three list.
The main difference in November is that Spain has fallen from the top five list, clearing the way for Japan to come in at number five and for Italy to advance to number four.
Broker websites
This time we are also revealing the top broker websites in terms of global traffic. We can see that the North American brokers are leading the way, with OANDA at number one and Interactive Brokers at number three. The UK-headquartered heavyweight IG Group is at number two this November.
Social
The top social sources for relevant traffic for brokers has some very interesting data. While the number one social referral source is still Facebook with about 44% of the market, smaller competitors have grown at its expense – especially Twitter which is still at number three. Twitter has expanded from about 9% to 15% in the last three months of social traffic.
At the respectable second place is Google’s video service Youtube with about 32%
