As of August 2025, the world most visited websites and digital landscape continues to be dominated by a familiar lineup of internet giants, but some shifts are beginning to emerge. Google.com once again secures the top spot as the most visited website globally, receiving an estimated 83.9 billion visits in a single month. Despite a slight month-over-month dip, Google maintains an overwhelming lead as the world’s primary search engine, powering over 13 billion daily searches.
Following closely behind is YouTube, pulling in over 30 billion monthly visits, affirming video as a core component of how users consume content online. Facebook, Instagram, and ChatGPT.com round out the top five, with ChatGPT making a remarkable rise into the mainstream—indicating that AI-powered platforms are no longer niche tools, but increasingly part of everyday internet activity.
The top ten also includes X.com (formerly Twitter), Reddit, WhatsApp, Bing, and Wikipedia—a clear reflection of user demand for conversation, communication, research, and alternative search tools often adopted by search engine optimization specialists and marketers.
Outside the top ten, the rankings feature region-specific favorites such as Yahoo Japan, Yandex.ru, and Baidu, as well as global marketplaces like Amazon, Temu, and professional platforms like LinkedIn. Short-form video leader TikTok continues to hold significant traffic share, especially among younger demographics.
These rankings emphasize the growing diversification in how users interact with the internet—whether it’s quick searches, long-form content consumption, social messaging, or AI chat. They also highlight the changing behavior of global users, with mobile-first experiences, AI tools, and visual content platforms steadily reshaping digital traffic trends.
As we close out Q3 2025, the message is clear: to stay relevant, platforms must continue evolving—especially as AI and content personalization become cornerstones of the modern web experience.
