Hello Everyone,

To recap for anyone new:

Here's a list of the top .za websites ranked by access statistics as supplied by Alexa as accessed by people in South Africa. It uses the detection logic from the Wappalizer project.

This site combines Alexa data, Wappalizer logic and PhantomJS (for the screencaps) to present the top lists. Analytics is first run through some custom PHP CLI which creates YAML files that simply go into a long text field for each date and country and is presented through a custom field formatter.

I wrote the site over a weekend a couple of weeks ago and have been adding a few new countries every week, so I'm sure it can be made a lot better but it's already pretty useful and interesting, I think. There's also an international top list and the full index:

As you guys can see, there's now some serious list of other countries also included in the list. Hopefully their local groups can also identify some of the people that built the sites on the list and generate some discussion around those sites.

There's one more week's batch of new countries to add, then it's time for a bit of a rest for the updates, but at least we've got two lists of top sites to compare for South Africa.

Kind regards,
Riaan Burger

A little less brand, but it definitely could have done with better usability. My first JS site, so looking back, there's so much that can be done right.

Welcome back - enjoyed DrupalCon?
