Community-based, ecommerce site Polyvore has been around for quite a while, but have done a pretty decent job building up a loyal following and a strong platform while staying pretty well under the radar. That all changed with last week’s announcement that Yahoo is buying Polyvore for an undisclosed amount.
Note: Polyvore officially shut down in April 2018.
So what is it that Yahoo’s latest acquisition has to offer? Here are the more interesting Polyvore statistics that I was able to dig up. As always, I will be updating this post regularly, so be sure to check back again for new and updated stats.
Please note that some of these numbers are easier to find than others. Many of these Polyvore statistics come from the company’s own disclosures, but some are based on news reports and not official company tallies. Basically, this is the best I can find and I don’t guarantee anything to be 100% accurate.
