There’s been a lot of talk about how big Facebook has become, and with its 600 million users (!) it has certainly become a force to be reckoned with. But there is still one player out there that dwarfs Facebook, and that is Google.
The problem is that it’s extremely difficult to estimate just how big Google actually is. But we’re going to try anyway.
Since Facebook uses a single website, it’s relatively easy to keep track of its size (with size, we mean the number of people who use it). With Google, we don’t have that luxury, because it is way more than just the Google.com website.
To give you an idea, here are Google-owned websites ranked in the worldwide top 100:
