November 15, 2008 - (HOSTSEARCH.COM) - British Internet services company Netcraft has developed a section of its website which shows the hosting locations and the market share of companies hosting the million busiest websites (as determined by visits from users of the Netcraft Toolbar), it was reported recently. According to the company, its figures are “uninfluenced by parked domains, personal sites, shared hosting accounts or the majority of blogs”.
According to Netcraft’s figures, the top 1000 sites are “concentrated amongst the web superpowers, Google, Microsoft, Yahoo and EBay”. However, the hosting locations of the top million sites are “widely fragmented, with a little over 3.25% sufficient for top spot”.
Netcraft presents its figures in an Excel spreadsheet and provides filters to enable users to find the information they are looking for. Hosting companies can use the information to establish their “relative position and closest competitors” in the top 10,000, 100,000 and million tiers of site traffic, and by region, country, and operating system. |
