SimilarWeb recently released a list of the world's top 25 websites based on monthly traffic.
Sites owned by the two giants Alphabet and Meta continue to dominate the list. Google, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp together account for three-quarters of the total traffic to the TOP 25 list.

The list also features a handful of sites like Baidu (China) and Yandex (Russia). Interestingly, the only adult sites on the list that are based outside the United States are XVideos, PornHub, and XNXX.
Thanks to the explosion of artificial intelligence AI, Bing, the search engine operated by Microsoft, has benefited greatly and entered the list of top websites in the world.
The chart shows the dominance of the big names in search and social media, while some upstarts are growing very quickly. The success of ChatGPT and other AI-powered tools has helped OpenAI’s web traffic skyrocket over the past year, reaching 1.8 billion in April 2023. Previously, the site’s traffic was only about 20 million per month last fall.
In fact, OpenAI's website traffic is growing so fast that it could soon surpass chart-topping giants like TikTok and Amazon.
The rise of OpenAI and ChatGPT shows that if you have a compelling enough technology, a company can rise very quickly.
