How are long tail websites typically characterized?

Long tail websites are characterized by their focus on niche content that appeals to a specific audience rather than a broad, general audience. This is reflected in the concept of the "long tail" in internet marketing, which suggests that while only a few products or topics achieve massive popularity, there is a vast number of less popular items that can collectively make up a significant market share.

These websites often have minimal inventory because they specialize in a narrow range of products or topics that target specific interests or needs. As a result, they often exhibit lower overall traffic compared to mainstream websites, but they can achieve high engagement within their niche due to the specialized content that resonates with a dedicated audience. This makes option B the most accurate characterization of long tail websites.
