More Than 8 Million Sites Online

Published: 3 November 1999 y., Wednesday
Over eight million web sites were located in the latest Netcraft Web Server survey and Microsoft, with a gain of over 2 percent, is the developer for over 2 million of those. The survey requested all hostnames with a http address and then individually polled each one for the server name. Apache remains the most widely used server, 55.24 percent, but was down by 1.65 percent, Microsoft-IIS was the second largest with 22.15 percent, showing a 2.78 percent increase on last month. The report opined that the latter is due to the popularity of WebJump, a free hosting service which uses NT machines as opposed an Apache based server such as FreeBSD, BSDI or Linux. Netscape was in third place with 7.56 percent of the market. During October, Netaid.org was found to be the largest site on the Web and in a breakthrough for the Linux community, the site used Red Hat Linux software as an ecommerce platform to collect live donations online.
