The thing that jumps out to me about this ranking of the bat is how badly Decathlon are doing. Decathlon are an established European&#x2F;Global bricks and mortar business - I know many of you will know this but I also know they&#x27;re almost totally absent from the USA. Extremely established, vertically integrated, global sports business with brands.<p>They&#x27;re getting 2.2 m hits a month and making 400k rev?? The next three stores down are doing three times that selling similar consumer products.<p>Okay maybe they have an unusually high number of visits to their store before someone purchases or that pipeline isn&#x27;t very well worked. 50% bounce rate and people only spending two minutes on the site. The other sites have a 40% bounce rate and I wonder if that accounts for the difference.<p>My guess is that many people put off buying their sports equipment but they don&#x27;t put off looking at it?

Data taken straight from similarweb so accuracy highly dependent on country of source, ad-block usage amongst visitors, etc etc. The ranking is probably vaguely correct but those detailed figures of time on site, facebook spend, revenue, etc are waaaayyyyy estimated.<p>&quot;I estimate revenue with [traffic * global ecom conversion rate * price of best selling product].&quot;<p>Wow. And you know, because this is now &#x27;published data&#x27;, you&#x27;ll see the figures crop up in news articles and blog posts. DID YOU KNOW THAT FASHIONOVA MADE MORE THAN $25m REVENUE IN 2020????

JB Hi-Fi (second on the list) is most certainly not a startup.<p>It&#x27;s a publicly listed Australian company and was founded in 1974.

Shopify&#x27;s Top 90 Most Visited Websites in 2021. This has very little to do with startups.

I&#x27;ve worked with 5 of the top 10. Trust me, these are start-ups only in name.
