Hitwise reports that traffic to humanitarian websites has grown over five-fold since the tsunami disaster December 26, with the sector now representing 0.29% of all visits made online.
The UK's Disaster Emergency Committee, an umbrella organization which coordinates the UK's national appeal for humanitarian crises overseas, is the most visited Charity website.

A previously unranked blog site, tsunamihelp.blogspot.com, jumped to the number 10 spot this week.
