Of those, 74.6% were ecommerce stores and the rest were business websites. Every one was caught the day its site went live and confirmed real, not pulled from a static list. Here is the breakdown, and how to reach this week's launches while they are fresh.

How fresh is this number?

It is the trailing 7 days, rebuilt daily. FisherLeads detects new stores and businesses from public signals (newly issued SSL certificates and domain records) the day they go live, confirms each is a real, working site, and adds it with the platform, country, category and a contact. This is confirmed-live coverage, not a claim of every store launched worldwide, which makes it a number you can cite.
