Meanwhile, Amazon.com saw its traffic increase 6.6% to 103.5 million visitors during July of this year compared to 97.1 million visitors in July 2011. Amazon.com was ranked sixth both years.


In total, Walmart.com added roughly 6.5 million visitors when comparing July 2012 to the same month the prior year and Amazon.com added 6.4 million.


Conversely, Target.com, the only other conventional retailer to crack comScore’s top 50 ranking in July, saw its traffic decline and it fell one notch to rank 46th last month.
