Pingdom: last year 107 trillion e-mails were sent

Known to many of us, the Internet service Pingdom presented a very interesting report based on our own service data. In the report, you can find out, for example, how many e-mails were sent last year, or how many people work on the Web around the world, or how many sites are already hosted on the Web itself. Well I will give the full text of the report, you can read it at the link indicated below. But the main points need to be mentioned, because this is really interesting data for many of us (if even this data may not be useful for work, then such data are quite capable of satisfying curiosity, right?).



So, last year, 107 trillion e-mails were indeed sent, and most of these messages (about 89%) were spam. Sorry, there is no detailed data on the annual traffic generated by spammers. Maybe someone from habravchan has such information?

But we will continue. So, per day, according to the data of the same service, users of the Global Network send about 294 billion e-mail messages (on average). At the same time, the global number of email accounts is 2.9 billion.



In addition, the total number of sites is 255 million, of which 152 million are blogs. 21.4 million sites appeared last year.



As for domain zones and domains, 88.8 million domain names are registered in the .com zone, 13.2 million domain names are in the .net zone, and 8.6 million domain names are registered in the .org zone. Another 79.2 million domain names are registered in national domain zones like .uk, .de, .ru and many others.



Separately, it is worth highlighting the data presented in the Pingdom report on the largest social networks of our time. Among the social networks, Pingdom most respected Twitter and Facebook, which are statistics. So, over the last year on Twitter, about 100 million new accounts were registered, and the total number of messages sent by users of the microblogging service for the year is 25 billion.



Facebook at the end of 2010 reported about 600 million users, of which 250 million increased in 2010.



In general, the report is very interesting, let's hope that the data given in it are correct.
