World’s most popular web sites!

Most popular web sites in the world – a favicon collage.

Favicons of The Top 300,000 Websites in the world was used to create this huge collage.

This size of the favicons in this collage is determined by the Alexa rankings meaning: the most used web sites have the largest favicons. Notable websites are Google, Facebook, Yahoo, Craigslist, Wikipedia, Youtube and others.


If you want to search for a specific icon in this collage you can do that at this link..  http://nmap.org/favicon/

To break this down to an amount of websites that is a little easier to comprehend, here is a link to see a list of the Top 1000 Websites...  http://www.google.com/adplanner/static/top1000/#

Just for fun I have added a picture of the Top 500 Website's favicons.


So there you have it, the most popular website in the world from The Top 300,000 to The Top 1000 and The Top 500 as well as their favicon. I thought this was a great way to show just how many websites there really is and the importance of the "favicon" when it comes to identifying websites.
