| What We Say: | Similar to Tucows.com, ZDNet.com is geared more toward IT professionals (53% of visitors in fact) rather than the casual techie. The site's design is purely functional and can be tiresome to navigate. They do offer a wide selection of programs (design tools, anti-virus/firewall protection drivers, etc.), but finding the right program for you takes far too long thanks to the site's poor design. |
