This list of world's most popular websites has some surprises
SimilarWeb, a global cloud-based website that offers business web analytics services, made a list of the most popular websites in the world.
Which is the most visited website in the world? Most of us use a Google account. Email the boss? Google. Play a game online? Google. Watch a video on YouTube? Google. It will come as no surprise then that the search engine giant is by far the most popular site globally. According to a list compiled by SimilarWeb, Google received more than 90 billion visitors in May, putting it well ahead of other websites.
YouTube comes next with 34.64 billion users over the month – followed by the holy trinity of social media: Facebook (22.38 billion), Twitter (6.75 billion) and Instagram (6.21 billion).
There are some surprising – and not so surprising – entrants in the bottom five, including baidu.com, yandex.ru and whatsapp.com. Adult websites xvideos.com and xnxx.com take the remaining two spots.
