Business Insider's top 10 neighbors are a tight cluster of business and technology media — no single standout pulls ahead, and the scores compress into a narrow band from 0.99 to 0.98.

The shape is flat: The Economist (0.99) and Bloomberg Businessweek (0.99) sit at the top, separated by just 0.0001, followed by Bloomberg (0.99), Financial Times Best Of (0.98), and Financial Times Breaking News (0.98). Six of the ten neighbors share Business Insider's own subcategory — News Publishers — while the remaining four are Mashable (0.98, Magazines), TechCrunch (0.98, Websites), Bloomberg Quicktake (0.98, News Publishers), and World Economic Forum (0.98, Research Organizations). The dominant pattern is same-kind: financial and business-focused news publishers occupy most of the nearest positions, with tech-oriented media — Mashable, TechCrunch — filling the remainder. The lone non-media entity, the World Economic Forum, is a research organization rather than a publisher, yet its audience shape lands within a fraction of the tightest media neighbors.

The compression of scores across the top 10 signals an audience that is broadly shared across the business and tech media ecosystem rather than uniquely attached to any single peer.
