Open Question: Major Companies Using Joomla

Quizilla.com Traffic

Do you know of any major companies using Joomla?

I've decided to set the bar high by looking for sites that do over half-a-million uniques per month or belong to a truly substantial company. A good rule of thumb is "do they have a Wikipedia entry?"

Here's what I've found so far:

Feel free to post more sites in the comments and I'll add to this list whenever we find a new one.

I just read about a site called Quizilla (www.quizilla.com/) that uses the Joomla framework, but does not use the Joomla CMS. Here is a post about it at Spacemonkey Labs: http://www.spacemonkeylabs.com/latest/highest-traffic-joomla-site-launches.html

Quizilla is owned by MTV Networks (Viacom). According to the post at SML, "Quizilla frequently serves 40 million page views weekly."

:-) S'OK. I think that is probably the least-Joomla site on the list because of its heavy modifications.

You're right ... its also getting a huge, huge amount of traffic. Some of the blog posts get several thousand comments each!

We built out a Joomla site for KickApps, a white label Social Networking site: www.kickapps.com (they're a fairly major company compared to us at least ;-) )

Hi Kyle ... very cool. We covered their integration with Joomla. I didn't realise their main site is also built in J!
