A Major Win - GolfLink.Com Scores Spot as Most Visited Golf Site on the Net

SANTA MONICA, Calif. - GolfLinkTM.com, the leading online golf resource and home to the world's largest online golf community, today announced it was the single most visited golf website according to July 2008 comScore data. In addition, GolfLink.com notched nearly one hundred thousand more page views than competitors including Golf.com or PGAtour.com according to compete.com traffic statistics. This honor is especially significant as July traditionally is one of the busiest months of the golfing season.

GolfLink.com, which offers a dynamic blend of professional content, social media tools and interactive features, credits its success in part to the popularity of its unique My Game application. My Game provides a free handicap calculator and game-tracking resource, as well as the ability to track everything from driving accuracy to putts-per-hole averages, giving golfers a comprehensive look at their favorite pastime. The resulting PGA-style stats allow even the average golfer to track their game like a pro.

"Social media and golf make for a perfect combination. Golfers are passionate about their sport and that passion can seed conversations and build a vibrant community," said Richard Rosenblatt, CEO of Demand Media, the parent company that owns and operates GolfLink.com. "It is a strategy we have implemented across our network, from the irreverent comedy community of Cracked.com, to the inspiring lifestyle tracking of LIVESTRONG.COM to the expansive Pro-Am content of eHow.com. The success of these sites demonstrates how well-directed content and powerful social media tools can dramatically grow web properties."

Additional GolfLink.com features contributing to the ranking include exclusive state-by-state course rankings, based on a proprietary blend of user feedback and course information; detailed course information and reviews; tip videos; and a new equipment section.
