ForexStreet.net Gains Traction – Becomes Serious Player in Forex

FXStreet’s social network, ForexStreet.net, gains traction and crossed the 3500 member line and is expected to cross the 100,000 page views mark in May. This rise will likely impact the popularity of other networks, and shows the interest for such interaction in the industry.

ForexStreet.net’s forums are becoming more active, and the site also leverages its senior writers, who contribute to the blogs section of the social network. This rising popularity is justified in my opinion. In the review of ForexStreet.net I favored the design and intuitive flow.  

Anyway, for more details about these milestones, here is the full press release:
