Three months ago, I review Nigeria’s Most Visited Web Startups on Alexa Top 100 Sites and my review generated several reactions from this blog’s readers. Today, I thought I should review Nigeria’s most visited social networking sites on the Alexa Top 100. (Alexa is the leading Web Ranking & Information Company).

From my research, I found that two popular sites that where not included in my first analysis have made it into the most visited Alexa Top 100 sites in Nigeria.

Naijapals.com (Ranked 43 out of 100) - A growing social networking site in Nigeria that offers several interesting features that reflects what a real social networking site should be. I have reviewed Naijapals on StartupsNigeria here and here. Current Alexa ranking - 27, 227

Legwork.com.ng (Ranked 75 out of 100) - A Nigerian networking community that lets you meet others for various reasons such as business contacts, career networking, dating and finding old or meeting new friends. Current Alexa ranking - 27, 230. I have reviewed Legwork here in a comparative web analysis with onlinenigeria.com

Meanwhile, other highly visited social networking sites include:

Facebook.com (ranked 4th), Hi5.com (ranked 11th), Myspace.com (ranked 19th), Perfspot.com (ranked 24th), Orkut.com (Ranked 25th), Adultfriendfinder.com (ranked 50th), Bebo.com (ranked 53rd), Flickr.com (ranked 73rd), Fanbox.com (ranked 74th).
