propertyfinder.com's Growth Outstripping ALL Major Competitors

Between October last year and May this year, propertyfinder.com (realestate.com.au's UK site) has out grown all major competitors. 

According to independent site measurement company comScore, propertyfinder.com grew by 88% over the period, more than double the growth of fish4homes and rightmove.

Most interesting was the decline in traffic suffered by primelocation over the same period.  According to comScore, primelocation's traffic decreased by 2% between October 2005 and May 2006.  It does make you wonder whether if the 48 million pound purchase price paid by DMGT for primelocation was a tad over enthusiastic.

The even better news is that we know that propertyfinder's traffic in June and July this year was significantly more than May - the source of these numbers. We will update you on the growth as the new comScore numbers are released.
