How Many Domains Are There in The World

How Many Domains are There in The World?

TLD – top level domain. Seems like every time you look around there is a new TLD. Or another ccTLD is now offering their ccTLD as a sudo-gTLD. But there is not much known about them. the first basic question is how many exist in each TLD. Or what is the most used second level and how many exist there. (.CO.UK is a good example of a common slccTLD).

It is a good start to guess the TOP most used TLDs in the world and then visit their webpages to see if there are some stats. Some have them do, some don’t. For the ones that don’t have stats online but which are popular you can write the administrator. Most are very helpful in providing the domain counts. If the stats can be found online you can write a script that downloads the stats every 24 hours.

Here is a static snap shot of the top 25:

How Much Time Do You Spend Online

How Much Time Do You Spend Online?

Have mankind’s basic needs evolved to include time on the internet? From the results of a recent poll, it certainly seems that way!

According to a poll on The New Business Blog, nearly 65% of us spend at least eight hours each day trolling the internet. It doesn’t take a math wizard to see that this represents, at minimum, 1/3rd of a day.

The results of the poll breakdown like this: 64% of respondents stated they spent at least eight hours on the internet each day; 20% of respondents stated they spent between five and seven hours on the internet each day; 14% of respondents stated they spent between two and four hours on the internet each day; and only 2% of respondents stated they spend one hour or less on the internet each day.

Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m sure the results of this poll are slightly skewed for a couple of reasons, namely, the poll was conducted online and because The New Business Blog isn’t normally a site that a lot of people just come to (people tend to stumble upon it while surfing the net) it seems to me that the site’s visitors are probably people who spend a decent amount of time online.

That being said, even for 65% of the survey’s respondents to state that they spend at least eight hours each day online really blows my mind. We have become accustomed to the internet and, on some levels, depend on it, but the fact that a majority of us are spending more time online than sleeping is a bit disconcerting.

Fortunately for those of us who run online businesses, this is pretty good news. During the days of dial-up, when people didn’t spend a whole lot of time online, it was tough to make sales and get your site seen by lots of people. But now that most people have high speed internet and spend lots of time online, the chances of you scoring sales or hits has really increased.

How Much Wikipedia Worth

How much wikipedia worth?

The only statistics to go by are Jimmy Wales (the founder of wikipedia) own personal estimations that he’s made in the past (interviews, articles, etc.). As of 2007, he estimated that Wikipedia was worth about $3 billion, and stated that he makes no money off of the non-profit Wikimedia foundation that he and Wikipedia are a part of. He also once wrote that his own net worth was less than $1 million.

Average website estimator would give you around 200,000$ for wikipedia worth. But, these numbers do not take in account the real value of wikipedia. The amount of information stored on wikipedia’s servers is huge. No one can really tell how much is wikipedia worth. Advertising on 25 pixels square on wikipedia’s pages will bring an income of 10M$ to the creator Jimmy Wales. The traffic is enormous, but still the creator prefers to leave free for non commercial use. Professionals estimate wikipedia’s worth as of 2009 about $3.5 billions u.s. dollars.

How Much Should a Web Site Cost

How Much Should a Web Site Cost?

Determining how much a web site should cost is one of the most frequently asked but rarely answered questions in the web design world. Even now, with millions of web sites online, there exists no magic formula for calculating either the cost of a new web site or the cost of a redesign.

Historical Perspective: How Much Should a Web Site Cost?

Like other goods and services, the cost associated with designing, developing and building a web site has changed over time. The following chart provides a timeline of historical dates compared to web site cost.

The basis for the chart was a small business (under 25 employees) located in a small city that wanted a professional web site having 15 pages, Web hosting and email, a domain name, and a aesthetic quality level of around 7/10.

Time Period - Expected Cost

1995 – 1997 $7,500 to $12,000
1998 – 2000 $6,000 to $10,000
2000 – 2004 $2,500 to $4,500
2004 – 2008 $2,000 to $7,500

The above data demonstrates a significant decrease in the base cost of a web site over the last decade. The reason for this drop in web site cost is driven by two factors.

First, there exist substantially more competitors in the web design market today, perhaps as many as ten times more than a decade ago. Second, modern tools have made it easier for Web designers to create great looking web sites.

These factors have also led to some unforeseen results. Most notably, in the last five years, the cost of web sites has become more disparate. After further analysis, we believe these trends can be explained through the increasing demand for cost effective web sites along with the drive for higher-end, interactive Web designs.

In other words, as web sites become standard for all businesses, the competition grows to produce higher-quality, low-cost Web designs. By the same token, with more Internet competition, a company now needs to work harder to differentiate its web site from those of its competitors. Often this involves adding better content, Flash designs, online videos, and interactive applications.

Web Site Components and Costs

With a historical perspective in place, it is important to examine each of the components that go into determining how much a web site should cost. On average, the following figures can be applied to estimating the cost of a web site:

Service: Domain Name
Cost: $9/year
Service: Hosting
Cost: $75 to $200 a year (depending on traffic & website features) Service: Web design and graphics development time
Cost: 60 to 150 hours (based on our experience for a 15 page Website) Service: Web site Maintenance
Cost: $500 to $1250 a year (depending on number of updates required)
