When it comes to popular websites, we all know about Google, YouTube, Facebook, and Wikipedia. Have you ever wondered what are the other top websites, especially about topics that you care about? This infographic from Nominus covers the most visited websites in the world:

Ever wondered which websites are the most visited in the world? If you had to guess, you probably wouldn’t need to consult Google to know that the search engine is on the number one spot, but as the list moves down from the YouTube/Facebook level of obviousness, some of the sites on this list may surprise you – or even be complete unknowns.
According to SimilarWeb, in seventh place is the Chinese search engine baidu.com, which received almost 5.5 billion visitors in November. You don’t have to go too far before you find porn, of course, with xvideos.com in tenth place and 3.2 billion visits over the month – one of two adult content sites in the top twelve.
Come on, this is so easy 😉 With more than half a billion unique visitors and more than half a trillion page views in April alone, Facebook (of course) tops the list of Google’s “1000 most-visited sites on the web” list. Wow!
The list is:
“based on Unique Visitors (users), as measured by Ad Planner. This list is updated monthly as new Ad Planner datasets are released. The list defines sites as top-level domains. For each site on the list, you’ll be able to see the site category, unique Visitors (users), page views and whether the site has ads.”
Note “the list excludes adult sites, ad networks, domains that don’t have publicly visible content or don’t load properly, and certain Google sites.”
