Trends: pet health and subscriptions

In addition to growing its direct-to-consumer website, Greenies grew its sales on Amazon, with revenue up 21.6% and units sold up 13%, according to Similarweb Shopper Intelligence.

Pet health is a major theme within these results. In addition to nutritional supplements, pet pharmacies and veterinary services showed fast growth.

Greenies succeeded with nutritional health supplements for dogs and cats and as part of a broader trend toward customized products and subscription sales. As with personalization for people, customization of products and services to a specific pet has the power to drive sales.

Greenies, Sundays for Dogs, Nutro, and Wuffes all offer products and sales by subscription. We saw this trend in other categories as well. In addition to convenience, these offerings help consumers budget for their online purchases, while not having to compromise on the quality of the products purchased.”

Digital 100 Methodology
Building on Similarweb’s general methodology for creating a comprehensive model of the digital world, the Digital 100 project reveals the fastest-growing web domains from pre-defined industry categories. Growth is measured as a percentage increase in average monthly traffic volume from 2022 to 2023. To qualify for inclusion, each domain had to meet a minimum average monthly traffic in both years. For the US, the minimum was 100,000 monthly visits in 2023 and 50,000 in 2022. A lower threshold was used for specific categories in other countries. Similarweb analysts then manually filtered the results to discover the most meaningful examples of digital business growth.
