Alberta Start-up Index - May 2008

Posted by Greg Andrews on Thu, May 15, 2008 11:56 AM · Filed under Calgary , Edmonton , Start-up Index · 7 Comments

The index ranks Alberta tech start-ups based on an average of Alexa and Compete traffic rankings. Criteria and other details are available on the Start-up Index page. This month, there may be some large shifts due to an overhaul of Alexa’s traffic sources.

If you have any suggestions for companies to add to the index, please post them in the comments for this post.

Perhaps we’d qualify? Based out of Edmonton, Cell Phones etc. is a comparison shopping engine for mobile phones and plans. Our Alexa rank is 64,903.

Hi.

Please add ThisCity.com based out of Calgary. We have been operating for just less than a year and would really like to be included in the Alberta Index.

Please notify me by email if there is any information I need to provide to get on the list.

Thanks,

Chri
