By Yusuf Abdi


The world wide web presents an enormous amount of opportunities when browsing, but there are always trends and routines. To be the most popular site these days is quite the status and not easy to achieve. You are probably thinking about the popular sites you know and the ones that you frequent that may not be quite as popular. Societal trends are continuously changing when it comes to online activity, and here are the top five most visited websites in today's world.

1. Google is currently in the lead with 1,100,000,000 monthly visitors. The search engine has become one of the Internet's giants thanks to its unique algorithm that allows users to look up anything they need to know. 2. YouTube comes in second with 1,000,000,000 monthly visitors. The popular video-sharing platform is a favorite thanks to user-generated content as well as videos shared by popular brands, artist's official channels or video content shared by TV channels and networks.

3. Facebook gets 900,000,000 monthly visitors and is definitely the most popular social media platform, even though several studies say that Facebook is becoming less popular. Facebook keeps introducing new features to keep users interested and is expected to stay among the most popular websites for the years to come.

4. Yahoo!'s 750,000,000 monthly visitors put the site in fourth position on our list. Yahoo! allows users to look up information and provides them with news and services such as a mailbox or chatrooms. Even though Yahoo! has been struggling in the past few years, the news content and search engine feature has made this site a popular homepage for a lot of Internet users.

You have probably never heard of it but Baidu is the fifth most popular website worldwide. Baidu is the most popular Chinese search engine and features a cooperative encyclopedia that is similar to Wikipedia, online discussion forums as well as a social network.

5. Amazon comes in at #5 with all that they offer on the commerce side as well as publishing endeavors and the future of online interaction. Amazon is a huge marketplace and much more.
