URLFAN

The two sites that I ranked in URLFAN were The New York Times and Twitter.
The New York Times website ranked eighth out of 3,783,534 websites followed by the site. It has been mentioned in 51,877 unique feeds and 337,604 blog posts. Mentioned by bloggers every two hours, it was also the top news site on the list. I believe these numbers reflect just how trusted this publication is by our society. Everyone uses it as a source.
Twitter actually ranked higher than The New York Times. Twitter ranks fourth our of the three million websites URLFAN follows. The website has been mentioned in 111,981 unique feeds and 2,047,600 blog posts. Bloggers mention this website every 18 minutes. This again shows how popular and utilized social media is becoming in our culture.
