The Netcraft Web Server Survey is a
survey of Web server software usage on the Internet. Netcraft received responses to its July 2004 survey from 52,131,889 sites. This is about 500,000 more sites than responded in June.
July was the 18th consecutive month of growth for the Web. The upswing began in February 2003 when the survey measured 35.8 million sites.
Although July brought yet another peak in the number of responses received, the four top-four players, Apache, Microsoft, SunONE, and Zeus, remained flat, seeing growth of 0.15 points, -0.03 points, -0.04 points, -0.03 points, respectively.
Of the sites surveyed, 25,610,489, or 49.13 percent, had .com domains; and 3,273,335, or about 6.28 percent, had .uk domains.
