BeautyRiot.com Joins Top Five Most Popular Beauty Web Sites










San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) March 9, 2005

BeautyRiot.com (http://www.beautyriot.com) has joined the Web’s most popular beauty-themed Web sites, entering the list at number five. The ranking is according to Alexa Internet (http://www.alexa.com), a leading Web site traffic and popularity ranking service (an Amazon.com company). BeautyRiot.com, a free, celebrity-focused, beauty and hair advice and information site, grew its traffic rapidly in the last twelve months. The site’s most popular area is its “Celebrity Hairstyles” photo gallery, featuring more than 300 high-quality pictures of popular celebrity hairstyles. The women’s Web site also provides instructions on how to copy celebrity hairstyles and makeup looks.

“Despite the wealth of print magazines providing beauty content to women, there’s very little quality information available on the Web,” said BeautyRiot president, Kirsten Lambertsen. “BeautyRiot.com serves that need. Our users–we call them ‘beauty junkies’–can immediately answer their hair and beauty questions, rather than trudge through a stack of expensive magazines for hours hoping for a solution. Plus, BeautyRiot is just plain fun to look at.”

BeautyRiot.com derives the majority of its traffic from organic search engine listings, and by far the most popular pages on the site are those about celebrities. Featured stars include Jennifer Lopez, Jennifer Aniston, Ashlee Simpson, Jessica Simpson, Beyonce Knowles, Angelina Jolie, Britney Spears, Lisa Rinna and many more. The Web site also provides advice and instruction on how to apply makeup, style hair, and solve beauty problems such as acne or a botched haircut. Visitors can submit their own beauty questions for BeautyRiot’s beauty expert, Celeste, to answer online.

BeautyRiot.com has gone from an Alexa ranking of over 200,000 a year ago to 38,847 as of March 8, 2005 (the lower the Alexa ranking, the more popular the Web site). The beauty and hairstyles Web site will serve over 400,000 unique visitors and more than four million pageviews this March, substantial numbers for a niche destination. 98% of the site’s vistors are women. BeautyRiot.com expects traffic to continue to grow briskly through 2005.

Alexa’s traffic rankings are based on the usage patterns of Alexa Toolbar users over a rolling 3 month period. A site’s ranking is based on a combined measure of reach and pageviews.

Visitors can find hairstyles and makeup information for all their favorite celebrities including Jennifer Lopez, Jennifer Aniston, Ashlee Simpson, Jessica Simpson, Beyonce Knowles, Angelina Jolie, Britney Spears, Lisa Rinna and many more.

BeautySchool.com Pushes for Green Movement in Beauty Industry












Lenexa, Kansas (Vocus) September 10, 2008

BeautySchool.com has turned over a new leaf – and this time, it’s all about going green. Since undergoing an extensive redesign earlier this year, the site has made a commitment to provide sound, useful information on “going green” and using eco-friendly beauty products.

The “Highlights” section of the site now offers resources and articles relating to green or eco-friendly beauty products. Material posted there promotes awareness and educates consumers and beauty professionals about green practices.

New articles are added to the site regularly. Topics in current articles range from reports on the harmful chemicals in commonly used beauty products to the difference between natural versus organic products. These insightful reports contain information to keep eco-conscious people – and those who want to be – aware of the choices that can be made to lessen the carbon footprint of the beauty industry.

The site encourages consumers and beauty professionals to help establish eco-friendly products and practices as the wave of the future. Some salons are already making the commitment to changing policies to include eco-friendly practices. The site touches on the topic of cosmetology schools and salons making the switch to greener pastures.

“It was our goal to have a site that would focus on green products and practices,” said Lori Oswald, site manager for BeautySchool.com. “We understand that beauty doesn’t come in one box and one shape. That’s why we are dedicated to educating consumers and beauty professionals about going green and how it can not only be more safe for them but for the planet as well.”

BeautySchool.com is actively invested in trying to empower consumers and beauty professionals through providing vital information on sound environmental practices in the beauty industry. For more information, visit http://www.BeautySchool.com .

For more than 11 years, the site has been one of the preeminent beauty school search engines on the Internet, typically ranking as No. 1 or No. 2 among search results on the most prominent search engines for users seeking a cosmetology career.
