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.

This dataset supplements publication "Multilingual Scraper of Privacy Policies and Terms of Service" at ACM CSLAW’25, March 25–27, 2025, München, Germany. It includes the first 12 months of scraped policies and terms from about 800k websites, see concrete numbers below.
The following table lists the amount of websites visited per month:
Month | Number of websites |
---|---|
2024-01 | 551'148 |
2024-02 | 792'921 |
2024-03 | 844'537 |

The amount of websites visited should always be higher than the number of jobs (Table 1 of the paper) as a website may redirect, resulting in two websites scraped or it has to be retried.
To simplify the access, we release the data in large CSVs. Namely, there is one file for policies and another for terms per month. All of these files contain all metadata that are usable for the analysis. If your favourite CSV parser reports the same numbers as above then our dataset is correctly parsed. We use ‘,’ as a separator, the first row is the heading and strings are in quotes.
Since our scraper sometimes collects other documents than policies and terms (for how often this happens, see the evaluation in Sec. 4 of the publication) that might contain personal data such as addresses of authors of websites that they maintain only for a selected audience. We therefore decided to reduce the risks for websites by anonymizing the data using Presidio. Presidio substitutes personal data with tokens. If your personal data has not been effectively anonymized from the database and you wish for it to be deleted, please contact us.
The uncompressed dataset is about 125 GB in size, so you will need sufficient storage. This also means that you likely cannot process all the data at once in your memory, so we split the data in months and in files for policies and terms.
The files have the following names:
Both files contain the following metadata columns:
website_month_id
- identification of crawled websitejob_id
- one website can have multiple jobs in case of redirects (but most commonly has only one)website_index_status
- network state of loading the index page. This is resolved by the Chromed DevTools Protocol.
DNS_ERROR
- domain cannot be resolvedOK
- all fineREDIRECT
- domain redirect to somewhere elseTIMEOUT
- the request timed outBAD_CONTENT_TYPE
- 415 Unsupported Media TypeHTTP_ERROR
- 404 errorTCP_ERROR
- error in the network connectionUNKNOWN_ERROR
- unknown errorwebsite_lang
- language of index page detected based on langdetect
librarywebsite_url
- the URL of the website sampled from the CrUX list (may contain subdomains, etc). Use this as a unique identifier for connecting data between months.job_domain_status
- indicates the status of loading the index page. Can be:
OK
- all works well (at the moment, should be all entries)BLACKLISTED
- URL is on our list of blocked URLsUNSAFE
- website is not safe according to save browsing API by GoogleLOCATION_BLOCKED
- country is in the list of blocked countriesjob_started_at
- when the visit of the website was startedjob_ended_at
- when the visit of the website was endedjob_crux_popularity
- JSON with all popularity ranks of the website this monthjob_index_redirect
- when we detect that the domain redirects us, we stop the crawl and create a new job with the target URL. This saves time if many websites redirect to one target, as it will be crawled only once. The index_redirect
is then the job.id
corresponding to the redirect target.job_num_starts
- amount of crawlers that started this job (counts restarts in case of unsuccessful crawl, max is 3)job_from_static
- whether this job was included in the static selection (see Sec. 3.3 of the paper)job_from_dynamic
- whether this job was included in the dynamic selection (see Sec. 3.3 of the paper) - this is not exclusive with from_static
- both can be true when the lists overlap.job_crawl_name
- our name of the crawl, contains year and month (e.g., 'regular-2024-12' for regular crawls, in Dec 2024)policy_url_id
- ID of the URL this policy haspolicy_keyword_score
- score (higher is better) according to the crawler's keywords list that given document is a policypolicy_ml_probability
- probability assigned by the BERT model that given document is a policypolicy_consideration_basis
- on which basis we decided that this url is policy. The following three options are executed by the crawler in this order:
policy_url
- full URL to the policypolicy_content_hash
- used as identifier - if the document remained the same between crawls, it won't create a new entrypolicy_content
- contains the text of policies and terms extracted to Markdown using Mozilla's readability
librarypolicy_lang
- Language detected by fasttext of the contentAnalogous to policy data, just substitute policy

The WordPress Site Management Software market size is projected to experience robust growth in the coming years, with a forecasted CAGR of 8.6% from 2024 to 2032. In 2023, the market was valued at approximately USD 2.8 billion, and it is expected to reach an impressive USD 5.8 billion by 2032. This significant growth can be attributed to various factors including the rising demand for efficient website management solutions, the proliferation of online businesses, and the increasing adoption of digital platforms for content management and e-commerce purposes.
A critical growth factor fueling the WordPress Site Management Software market is the surging popularity of WordPress as a content management system (CMS). WordPress powers over 40% of websites globally, making it an indispensable tool for bloggers, e-commerce platforms, and enterprises looking to enhance their online presence. The easy-to-use interface, vast library of plugins and themes, and a strong community of developers contribute to WordPress's dominance in the CMS space. As businesses increasingly recognize the importance of maintaining dynamic and user-friendly websites, the demand for comprehensive management software that optimizes WordPress functionalities continues to rise.
Another key driver of market growth is the continuous evolution of digital marketing strategies and the need for personalized user experiences. Businesses are investing in WordPress site management software to harness data analytics, SEO optimization, and content customization tools that enhance visitor engagement and conversion rates. The shift towards a more digital-centric business environment, accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic, has made it crucial for enterprises to adopt solutions that streamline content creation, web performance monitoring, and security management. As a result, the demand for sophisticated management software that can handle these tasks efficiently is on the rise.
The growing trend of remote work and the need for remote collaboration tools also contribute to the expanding WordPress Site Management Software market. With teams dispersed across various locations, enterprises require robust software solutions that enable seamless website updates, content management, and workflow automation. Cloud-based deployment options have gained traction as they offer flexibility, scalability, and accessibility, aligning perfectly with the needs of a remote workforce. This trend is expected to continue, further driving the adoption of WordPress site management solutions globally.
In the realm of digital solutions, Link Management Software has emerged as a pivotal tool for businesses aiming to optimize their online presence. This software facilitates the organization, tracking, and management of hyperlinks across various digital platforms, ensuring that businesses maintain a coherent and efficient web strategy. By automating the process of link monitoring and reporting, Link Management Software helps enterprises prevent broken links, improve SEO performance, and enhance user experience.

Regionally, North America holds a significant share of the WordPress Site Management Software market, driven by the presence of major technology companies and a high concentration of digital content creators and e-commerce businesses. The region's advanced infrastructure and early adoption of innovative technologies contribute to this dominance. However, the Asia Pacific region is anticipated to experience the fastest growth during the forecast period, with a projected CAGR of 9.2%. The increasing digitization of businesses, rising internet penetration, and the growth of the e-commerce sector in emerging economies like China and India are key factors propelling market expansion in this region. Europe and Latin America are also witnessing steady growth due to the increasing importance of digital platforms in business strategies.

According to our latest research, the global web analytics market size was valued at USD 8.4 billion in 2024, reflecting robust growth driven by the increasing adoption of digital platforms across industries. The market is projected to expand at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 17.2% from 2025 to 2033, reaching an estimated USD 36.8 billion by 2033. This significant upsurge is primarily attributed to the escalating demand for actionable insights, data-driven decision-making, and the proliferation of online consumer activity. As per the latest research, enterprises worldwide are leveraging advanced web analytics tools to enhance customer engagement, improve marketing strategies, and drive business outcomes.
One of the principal growth factors fueling the web analytics market is the exponential increase in digitalization and internet penetration. Organizations across various sectors are rapidly transitioning their operations online, resulting in a surge of data generation through multiple digital touchpoints. This digital transformation has heightened the need for sophisticated web analytics solutions that can process vast volumes of data, extract meaningful patterns, and provide actionable insights. Moreover, the rise in e-commerce activities, coupled with the growing popularity of social media platforms, has created a fertile environment for the adoption of web analytics, enabling businesses to track consumer behavior, measure campaign effectiveness, and optimize user experiences.
Another critical driver for the web analytics market is the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies. These advanced technologies are revolutionizing the way organizations analyze web data by enabling predictive analytics, real-time reporting, and personalized recommendations. AI-powered web analytics tools can automatically identify trends, anomalies, and customer preferences, empowering businesses to make data-driven decisions faster and more accurately. Furthermore, the increasing focus on omnichannel marketing strategies and the need to unify customer data across different platforms have further accelerated the demand for comprehensive web analytics solutions.
The regulatory landscape and growing emphasis on data privacy and compliance are also shaping the web analytics market. With the implementation of stringent data protection regulations such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in Europe and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) in the United States, organizations are compelled to adopt web analytics tools that ensure data security and privacy. This has led to the development of privacy-centric analytics platforms that offer enhanced data governance features, enabling businesses to comply with global regulatory requirements while still deriving valuable insights from web data. The ability to balance data-driven innovation with privacy considerations is becoming a key differentiator for vendors in this dynamic market.
From a regional perspective, North America continues to dominate the web analytics market, accounting for the largest share in 2024, followed by Europe and Asia Pacific. The region’s leadership is attributed to the presence of major technology providers, a mature digital ecosystem, and high levels of investment in analytics infrastructure. However, Asia Pacific is expected to witness the fastest growth during the forecast period, driven by the rapid adoption of digital technologies, expanding internet user base, and increasing investments in e-commerce and digital marketing. The growing awareness among businesses in emerging economies about the benefits of web analytics is further propelling market growth in this region.
The web analytics market by component is bifurcated into software and services, with each segment playing a pivotal role in market expansion. The software segment holds the lion’s share of the market, driven by the continuous evolution of analytics plat
