Hitwise has released the stats for the top 20 websites in the U.S. for the month of October. Google has topped the spot with a market share of 6.17%, followed by Yahoo mail and MySpace with 4.7% and 3.91% respectively. Popular social networking site Facebook has gained the 8th place with 1.24% market share.
It’s interesting to compare this list with WOT’s list of most popular websites in the last 30 days. These numbers are quite similar to the Hitwise list but ours is worldwide since WOT’s users are from everywhere. For example, the German language Google is 9 on our most popular list.
