Die 50 populärsten Genealogie Internetseiten 2010

Kory  L. Meyerink, MLS, AG, FUGA

Diese Rangliste wurde im ersten Quartal 2010 erstellt. Sie basiert auf der Popularität gemessen von vier führenden Analyseinstituten, und sie ist in einem Artikel von Elizabeth Kelley Kerstens erklärt, der in der Juli/August Ausgabe von Digital Genealogist erschienen ist. In Klammer sind die Ranglisten 2009 und 2008 in dieser Reihenfolge, nach der Internetseiten-Beschreibung, angegeben. Neue Internetseiten in der Rangliste für 2010 sind so zu erkennen.

Dies sind Internetseiten die entweder Genealogische Informationen enthalten oder sie beinhalten Hinweise zu anderen Internetseiten die Genealogische Informationen beinhalten. Einige dieser Internetseiten sind nicht kostenlos und falls Sie sich entscheiden diese zu nutzen, wird ein Betrag erhoben. Die NICHT kostenlosen Internetseiten sind durch das $ Zeichen markiert. Wir bieten Ihnen diese Internetseiten nicht als Empfehlung an sondern nur damit alle wissen, dass diese Internetseiten existieren.
