 As in football, all these websites are competing for top spot and as we know, year on year, there are no absolute rankings, you could lose your position at any time to your closest rivals.

These websites have many similarities with football clubs, they both contain stakeholders, the chairman at the very top (the client) and the fans (users of the website). The amount of business and profits gained through sponsorships depends of the rankings.
