What: Within one year of its launch, Quicken.com, a leading financial web site, has exceeded the 100 million page view per month mark. During the month of October Quicken.com compiled over 107 million page views on the site, pushing the traffic growth rate to 410% since October '97.
"The popularity of Quicken.com continues to exceed our expectations," stated Roy Rosin, director of marketing for Quicken.com. "When we launched last October, we had hoped to reach an average of 65 million page views per month, within one year. I believe the success of the site is due in large to the fact that from the start, we've had the highest quality, objective content and tools that help people track and research investments, save money on mortgages and insurance and answer all their key financial questions. And it's always been free to consumers."
The growing popularity of Intuit's leading mortgage and insurance web sites clearly contributes to Quicken.com's overall success. QuickenMortgage and Quicken InsureMarket sites are designed to take the hassles out of shopping for mortgages and life and auto insurance, through one-stop comparison shopping, which also helps people save time and money.
