A tool for finding SIMILAR websites?

Asked by derning (101points) May 9th, 2008

Can you recommend a website or tool where I can enter a few similar websites (i.e., YouTube and DailyMotion), and it will return a list of results with other similar websites (i.e., MetaCafe, Revver, BrightCove, Veodia, etc.)?

It would be preferable if the grouping was defined semantically by a large group of users, as opposed to a small group of hired editors.

Thanks in advance for your advice.

Del.icio.us will show you websites similar tags…maybe that will work for you?

Google already does this. When you see search results, there will be a link for “Cached” and “Similar pages” under each entry.

And Alltop groups similar sites by genre.

Plus, there’s Google Sets which works for more than just websites.

In some bookmarking sites, search for your tag name and may be you’ll find similar websites.
