Another month just went by as we march right on to the mid year. In what has become our norm every month, let’s take you through top Nigerian sites for last month of May.

As usual, Nairaland.com remains on the top spot! In fact am looking for the Nigerian site that will displace Nairaland. It’s been consistent for the past 5 years. Punchng.com that was a contender last year, lost it due to its ill-informed strategy. After the decision was reverted, it has found very difficult to give Nairaland a fight! Punchng.com sits comfortably on the second spot. Thisdayonline.com also maintained the 3^rd spot while vanguardngr.com moved two places to the 4^th spot. 234next.com also moved 2 places to the 5^th spot while gtbank.com drop another 1 spot having drop 1 last month, dropping another this month is a sign something could be wrong, aren’t people orange friendly again? The biggest casualty on the top-ten is naijahotjobs.com which dropped 5 places and eventually dropped out of the top-ten. Nigeriagalleria.com, ngrguardiannews.com and nigerianbestforum.com are on the 8^th, 9^th, and 10^th spots respectively. Nigeriagalleria.com, made it to the top ten this month with a staggering, 3 places move to push naijahotjobs.com out of the top ten!
