How Many Website We Have On The Internet?
When Dow Jones stock trend is desperate to kiss the x-axis of stock graph, this trend analysis has some attractive “figures” to discuss. In October 2008 survey conducted at Netcraft noticed 182,226,259 web sites. So we are a family of 182 millions Publishers and webmasters. It reflects a growth of 948 thousand.
Numbers of active web sites are not as much of in the total counts of 182 Web Sites in World Wide Web. Interestingly approximately 11 million sites are hosted on Google’s own web servers which tally to the 6% of total web sites on the internet.
Total Sites across All Domains August 1995 – October 2008
Like the very wholehearted stats about blogging from Technorati, stats about growth of the internet presented by Netcraft are encouraging.
WoW, this is an amazing stats here, Shanker. Well, the biggest different between the stock markets and amount of websites is the total number of websites/blogs will never move in a downward direction like stock markets are…
It is interesting to see how the number of hostnames is rising at a large pace in comparison to the rise of active sites. This makes sense as active sites have to be run by individuals that are putting effort out. The rise in the number of active sites appears to have lowered in growth intensity as the population of the internet starts to pan out across the globe.
Wow..Thats alot of websites.. and it’s growing rapidly everyday.
