One trillion … and counting
July 31st, 2008 by Ingrid Cliff
Following on from a recent post about small businesses not yet embracing web sites, I thought I should do some checking on how many web pages there really were on the net.
The Official Google Blog just announced that their Google bots just indexed 1 trillion unique urls – that is a staggering 1,000,000,000,000 unique pages (there are only an estimated 68 307 855 800 people in the world)
Figures like that makes you realise how important search engine optimisation (SEO) of your website really is so you can be found amongst 1 trillion other web pages! (Of course I am totally biased in great web copy as the key to an optimised website).
Happy optimising!
