Which legitimate structured settlement industry websites are getting the most Internet traffic?

Three Month Trailing Top 10 Global Traffic Rank (Alexa Rank as of 08/01/2010) of Structured Settlement and Settlement Planning Industry websites* (+ or- traffic from 06/29/2010 report). Lower number is better (e.g. Google.com is ranked 1 in the overall scheme)

Three Month Trailing Top 9 USA Traffic Rank (Alexa Rank as of 08/01/2010) of Structured Settlement and Settlement Planning Industry websites*.

The 3 month data is used as it  is a measure of consistency. The USA
data is meaningful because it is the country in which the predominant
number of structured settlements are written. Who is reaching those prospects and clients on the Internet?

This survey omitted from the search results any
websites with ISPs that do not differentiate between them and the ISP
itself.  It is worth noting that the leading web sites are dominated
by those whose creators, individually or as entities, employ a settlement planning approach to their business.

FAST FACT: A survey published in June 2009 found that 38% of those asked consider the Internet the most reliable source of news. The survey results further state that 56% of adults nationwide would pick the Internet if they were allowed just one source for their news. Source: Zogby, World Net Daily 6/17/2009
