Alphabet, the parent company of Google, is facing mounting lawsuits over its monopoly of online search. Regulators are closely examining default search agreements, including those with Apple, where Alphabet pays a share of revenue to secure Google’s position as the default search engine in Safari. For instance, Alphabet paid Apple $20 billion as part of this agreement in 2021.
Ranking in sixth is Reddit, with 91 million daily active users. In the first half of 2024, 5.3 billion posts were created on the platform—a 21% jump year-over-year. With thousands of active subreddits, the platform is known as “the front page of the internet.”
As the world’s most popular AI tool by monthly visits, ChatGPT stands among the top 10 websites globally. With 400 million weekly users, ChatGPT-maker OpenAI, is valued at $300 billion.
Meanwhile, TikTok ranks in 20th overall, with 2.5 billion monthly visits—significantly trailing behind Instagram’s 6.8 billion.
