`How we got from 1 to 162 million websites on the internet ­ Pingdom Royal
`
`According to the latest numers, there are more than 162 million wesites on the internet
`toda. We have come a long wa since the (cid:399)rst a steps of the World Wide We. ack
`in Januar of 1996 we had 100,000 wesites, and if we go ack to mid-1993 there were
`onl a total of 130 wesites. Not much need for Google in those das…
`
`So how has the numer of wesites grown over time? Here is how we got from 1 to 162
`million wesites:
`
`The graph covers Decemer 1990 to March 2008.
`
`The earl growth is di(cid:401)cult to see in the graph, so here is a tale showing how long it
`took efore the we grew to 100,000 wesites:
`

`He, Pingdom could have monitored the uptime of the entire World Wide We ack then!

`
`Wonder aout that one, single wesite ack in Decemer of 1990? That was info.cern.ch,
`the (cid:399)rst-ever wesite and we server, created  Tim erners-Lee (inventor of the WWW).
`
`It’s amazing how the we has gone from consisting of just this (cid:399)rst little we page to the
`huge network of millions and millions of wesites that it is toda, and how pervasive the
`we has ecome in our societ. We do our anking online, read our news online, have our
`encclopedias online, meet friends online. And all this has happened since 1990.

`The de(cid:399)nition of what counts as a wesite varies, ut the numers here are hostnames
`connected to sites that respond. The numers from Netcraft (August 1995 and onward)
`include parked pages as well, so it is larger than the numer of “active” wesites.
`
`Some of the data was taken from Hoes’ Internet Timeline and then complemented with
`Netcraft data.
