With the commercialization of the internet and its services, it was just a matter of time before the local market jumped onto this latest bandwagon, which undoubtedly is the biggest in terms of its reach. Almost everyone is connected to the internet today. Shopping online has not only become easy, but quite advantageous as well for internet users.

A closer look at group buying sites

The concept of group buying sites reached the apex of its success after the birth of Groupon, which is one of the most known daily deal sites, offering its customers discount coupons and gift certificates. This was just a start. Soon numerous such daily deal sites mushroomed in huge amounts all over the internet.

Let us look at some of the most famous daily-deal sites.

There are deals on anything and everything we do, eat or buy. It has an Alexa ranking of 264, and caters to more than 23 countries across North and South America, Europe and Asia. Recently, Groupon moved into the Indian market by acquiring Bangalore-based SoSasta.com. A much awaited traffic standoff is Facebook vs. Groupon deals. Analysts forecast that it can be expected soon as social shopping services rise.
