10 Comments » Share

The leading source for insights about online marketing, e-commerce and industry trends, Hitwise has recently announced that Facebook is now the biggest site in US. According to the latest data from Hitwise, Facebook surpassed Google to become the most visited site in the US in the past week. It is interesting to know that there is a very small gap between the two giants and other analytics companies aren’t seeing the same numbers, but it’s yet a important milestone.

According to Hitwise -

Facebook reached an important milestone for the week ending March 13, 2010 and surpassed Google in the US to become the most visited website for the week. Facebook.com recently reached the #1 ranking on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and New Year’s Day as well as the weekend of March 6th and 7th. The market share of visits to Facebook.com increased 185% last week as compared to the same week in 2009, while visits to Google.com increased 9% during the same time frame. Together Facebook.com and Google.com accounted for 14% of all US Internet visits last week.

Facebook accounted for 7.07 percent of the web traffic in the US last week and Google for 7.03 percent. The two are followed by Yahoo Mail with 3.8 percent, Yahoo with 3.67 percent and YouTube with 2.14 percent. The top five web proprieties in the US account for almost a quarter of all the traffic in the country. Congratulations Facebook, we love you
