Daily deals websites have exploded in just a few years, offering both a great way to save on everyday goods and services and the opportunity for retailers to reach many new customers.

Here’s for example a funny one: Visdeal.nl, a daily deal site offering all kinds of deals in the fishing market.

Online MBA has released an interesting Infographic which shows a breakdown of the four biggest players in the field. What do you think what will happen when these 2 giants will introduce their deal propositions?
