Gemius recently launched a new version of the Romanian website. The result can be viewed by following this link. To mark the occasion, it was tested which websites are visited most often by internet users in Romania above 14 years of age. The analysis covered data from July 2015.

Google, Facebook and YouTube in the top three

It turned out that the ranking was dominated by global websites. Google came in at first place with a reach of 89.1 per cent (combined data for Google.com and Google.ro), Facebook was second (81,3 per cent), and Youtube was third (68 per cent).

Also popular in Romania are the American portal Yahoo!, visited by more than half of internet users (58.2 per cent), the service Olx.ro, visited by almost a third of internet users (37.3 per cent), and the website Mozilla.org, which is visited by close to one in three Romanian internet users (29.2 per cent).

Top 10 includes three local websites

Three local websites also appeared in the ranking. These were the news services Adevarul.ro (25.2 per cent) and Stirileprotv.ro (25.1 per cent) and the informational television website Romaniatv.net (24.7 per cent).

About the research

The data comes from gemiusAudience, an international research project conducted by Gemius in around 30 countries in Europe, Middle East and North Africa. It aims to determine the number and demographic profile of internet users and to learn about the ways in which they use the net: websites, audio and video material, or applications.
