In November 2024, Google.com was the most popular website worldwide with 136 billion average monthly visits. The online platform has held the top spot as the most popular website since June 2010, when it pulled ahead of Yahoo into first place. Second-ranked YouTube generated more than 72.8 billion monthly visits in the measured period. The internet leaders: search, social, and e-commerce Social networks, search engines, and e-commerce websites shape the online experience as we know it. While Google leads the global online search market by far, YouTube and Facebook have become the world’s most popular websites for user generated content, solidifying Alphabet’s and Meta’s leadership over the online landscape. Meanwhile, websites such as Amazon and eBay generate millions in profits from the sale and distribution of goods, making the e-market sector an integral part of the global retail scene. What is next for online content? Powering social media and websites like Reddit and Wikipedia, user-generated content keeps moving the internet’s engines. However, the rise of generative artificial intelligence will bring significant changes to how online content is produced and handled. ChatGPT is already transforming how online search is performed, and news of Google's 2024 deal for licensing Reddit content to train large language models (LLMs) signal that the internet is likely to go through a new revolution. While AI's impact on the online market might bring both opportunities and challenges, effective content management will remain crucial for profitability on the web.

Context

Alexa Internet was founded in April 1996 by Brewster Kahle and Bruce Gilliat. The company's name was chosen in homage to the Library of Alexandria of Ptolemaic Egypt, drawing a parallel between the largest repository of knowledge in the ancient world and the potential of the Internet to become a similar store of knowledge.

The categories list was going out by September, 17h, 2020. So I would like to save it. https://support.alexa.com/hc/en-us/articles/360051913314

This dataset was elaborated by this python script (V2.0): https://github.com/natanael127/dump-alexa-ranking

Content

The sites are grouped in 17 macro categories and this tree ends having more than 360.000 nodes. Subjects are very organized and each of them has its own rank of most accessed domains. So, even the keys of a sub-dictionary may be a good small dataset to use.

Alexa ranking was inspired by Library of Alexandria. In the modern world, it may be a good start for AI know more about many, many subjects of the world.

Google.com continues to dominate the digital landscape, ranking as the most linked-to website worldwide with 468,745 referring subnets as of December 2024. Facebook.com follows closely in second place with 470,479 referring subnets, while YouTube.com ranked third with 417,827.

Poland's internet landscape has seen significant shifts in recent years, with WP.pl emerging as the most influential website in 2023. The site garnered approximately 32,000 cross-media references, outpacing competitors Onet.pl and Interia.pl. This ranking reflects the growing importance of online platforms as primary news sources for Polish citizens, a trend that has been accelerating over the past decade. Rise of digital news consumption The dominance of websites like WP.pl aligns with broader trends in Polish media consumption. Between 2013 and 2022, the proportion of Poles reading news online more than doubled, reaching 64 percent. However, this figure represents a slight decline of 5.1 percentage points from the previous year, suggesting a potential plateau in digital news readership. Despite this minor setback, the internet remains a crucial information source, particularly among those with higher education backgrounds. Competitive landscape of news apps As Poles increasingly turn to digital platforms for information, mobile news apps have become a key battleground for user attention. In 2024, weather-focused apps dominated the free news app category, with Weather24: Forecast & Radar leading the pack at 883,000 downloads across iOS and Android platforms. However, when it comes to revenue generation, traditional news outlets still hold sway. The WYBORCZA: fact, news app topped the charts in 2024, generating 567,410 U.S. dollars in revenue. This suggests that while weather apps may attract more downloads, established news brands have found more success in monetizing their digital offerings.

India ranked 52nd on the Digital Quality of Life Index in 2023, which revealed electronic infrastructure as one of the country’s strengths. YouTube in India As of 2025, India had the world’s largest YouTube user base, figuring over 491 million users. The video platform caters to the nation’s tech-savvy denizens as an educational resource and a source of entertainment. Moreover, YouTube has evolved into a dynamic space for digital marketing, especially harnessing the consumer base segment aged below 32.

This ranking report attempts to identify the best law school home pages based exclusively on objective criteria. The goal is to assess elements that make websites easier to use for sighted as well as visually-impaired users. Most elements require no special design skills, sophisticated technology or significant expenses. Ranking results in this report represent reasonably relevant elements. In this report, 200 ABA-accredited law school home pages are analyzed and ranked for twenty elements in three broad categories: Design Patterns & Metadata; Accessibility & Validation; and Marketing & Communications. As was the case in 2009, there is still no objective way to account for good taste. For interpreting these results, we don't try to decide if any whole is greater or less than the sum of its parts.

this research aims to evaluate the accessibility of the home pages of the web portals of the Ecuadorian higher education institutions ranked in the Webometrics with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 of the World Wide Web Consortium.

The SCImago Institutions Rankings (SIR) is a classification of academic and research-related institutions ranked by a composite indicator that combines three different sets of indicators based on research performance, innovation outputs and societal impact measured by their web visibility. It provides a friendly interface that allows the visualization of any customized ranking from the combination of these three sets of indicators. Additionally, it is possible to compare the trends for individual indicators of up to six institutions. For each large sector it is also possible to obtain distribution charts of the different indicators. For comparative purposes, the value of the composite indicator has been set on a scale of 0 to 100. However the line graphs and bar graphs always represent ranks (lower is better, so the highest values are the worst).
