While there are more than 1.1 billion websites in the world, the 100 most popular websites — i.e. less than 0.0000090909% ! — “rule” the Internet and generate most of its traffic.
Singapor hosting company Vodien published an infographic ranking the 100 most popular websites in the United States, based on data from Alexa:
In particular, the Top 10 includes:
- YouTube
- Amazon
- Yahoo!
- Wikipédia
- Ebay
- Netflix
And the Social Media Top 10 is:
- YouTube
- Imgur
- Tumblr
- Stack Overflow
- Quora
What’s in it for Social Media Managers: although the above rankings focus on traffic and may not reflect the actual usage of these platforms, it’s interesting to get the big picture and keep in mind an estimate of “who” the 100 most popular websites are, when launching new campaigns.
