Launched in late 2006, CafeMom is already the largest social-networking/community site for moms AND the leading women’s/parenting site on the internet – passing mainstream sites like ivillage, babycenter, and Marthastewart on the engagement metrics that matter most. With more than 120MM pageviews / month and 6MM visits / month, CafeMom was ranked the #8 fastest-growing site in 2007 by compete.com and has recently won awards from Mashable and AlwaysOn as one of the leading social networking sites.
As the world’s original social networkers, moms are connecting on shared interests, passions, challenges, and local geography. Moms have created more than 35,000 groups. Popular groups include pregnancy, raising boys, recipe swap, photo moms, and marriage and relationships.
