“We found companies in a number of ways, including recommendations from web site vendors, an open call for submissions and, most often, from our own daily research on the latest e-commerce news here at the magazine.”

This is the first year Internet Retailer compiled a Second 500 Guide. In the company of Aleva Stores in the Second 500 are businesses like Threadless.com, Godiva Chocolatier and other familiar names.
