AOL want to sell ICQ, lock four international buyers

According to informed sources, the sale of its its instant messaging service ICQ, AOL has taken another measure, from the seven tenders, lock them four international buyers.

According to some informed sources, the service's offer of about 200 million U.S. dollars, and only some of a higher bid.

AOL spokesman declined to comment on it.

BoomTown wrote an article last November, said America Online's ICQ want to sell the company. The service was the latest stand-alone Internet companies in some key services, but because the company will shift to content and advertising business, so to sell it.

A month later, there are other reports said the transaction is actually nearing the end. Transactions, adopted a more traditional approach, that is the program to invest in the United States bidders online investment bank, Allen & Co and Morgan Stanley.

The source said, the bidding process has ended, has produced four candidates for buyers. But not by the suspect prior to the trade of American companies, but more likely to be many international Internet companies in one.

This is because, ICQ has 40 million to 50 million active users worldwide, but the performance of its overseas operations more robust, especially in Germany, Russia, Eastern Europe and Israel.

While I can not know for sure which company eventually became ICQ buyers, but the following are the most likely companies: Russian investment group Digital Sky Technologies, the group had social-networking site Facebook, and social gaming site Zynga invested; China Tencent company's instant messaging and gaming services, QQ; the South African media giant Naspers, Inc.; Czech Republic's largest portal, Seznam network portal; Russia's leading search engine Yandex is also possible.

In the U.S., some people think that Google will become the ICQ bidders, although the bid is much lower.

No matter how the final sale price, are likely to be far lower than America Online in 1998 to purchase the service prices. At that time a strong America Online to 287 million U.S. dollars acquisition of this once most popular online communication tools.

However, unlike its competitors Microsoft, Yahoo and Google when compared to similar services, ICQ's popularity in the United States lags behind. In addition, Facebook, and Twitter has also become a major competitor in that area.

In contrast, America Online's AIM instant messaging service performance is quite strong, is one of the most popular instant messaging software.

ICQ still has offices in Israel, about 100 employees, moderate level of profit. Sources said bidders and their team, now also with discussion.

However, overall, must adopt a cooperative approach.

However, Comscore data shows a monthly unique visitors and passengers and was ranked third compared to Yahoo's website, but also a difference of 241 million. To December 2009, the gap narrowed to 125 million passengers. (The same month, Facebook in the United States replaced the original fourth of AOL.)

In December 2009, Facebook has reached an independent visits 469 million, compared to the previous month has increased by 31 million passengers. Facebook within a month increase in the amount of new users of Yahoo for one year is equivalent to the amount of the increase in users, but also is equivalent to the amount of Digg users and the total amount of half of the Twitter users. At the same time, Yahoo in December from November to the loss of 7 million unique visitors, visits to the end of its independence has dropped to 594 million. (In the U.S., Yahoo ranked second only to Google. Yahoo in unique visitors in December for 161 million passengers to 173 million in Google, Microsoft for the 138 million passengers, Facebook 112 million person-trips)

This figure and the Fcebook's 350 million registered users do not like that half of these users who visit the Web site every day. ComScore statistics of site visits per day, the result is compared with the number of registered users more than. However, these figures are only estimates, and does not include the 60 million a month through the Facebook web site links to other sites log the number of users.

In terms of years Facebook unique visitors in 2009 increased by 2.5 million passengers. 2010 want to maintain this growth more difficult, but even to keep half of 2009 growth, Facebook is still certain to win and be able to become the world within a year of more than Yahoo's third-largest site, but also not listed. Of course, ahead of second-top-ranked Microsoft and Google, but also take a very long time. Microsoft's 09 at the end of the world's unique visitors reached 727 million passengers, an increase on the previous year 80 million visitors, while Google has reached 899 million passengers, an increase compared with the previous year to 123 million passengers.

Other aspects of the data, Facebook has more than Yahoo and Microsoft.

Google is still tops pageviews a month's visit amounted to 274 billion (an increase of 35 percentage points). Clearly, Yahoo lost its competitive edge. Microsoft and Google at least maintained a significant growth rate. However, people are not hard to imagine that one day the Federation of Facebook than Google.

Facebook to stay in the user the length of time the site is also more than Yahoo (116 million and 1.01 million), the same, its users to stay on the site, the average duration is also more than Yahoo (Facebook for 274 minutes per month, Yahoo is 170 minutes ).
