30 Dec 2011 07:521 commentsBizLike
WASHINGTON, US: Google was the most-visited Web destination in the United States in 2011, followed by Facebook and Yahoo, industry tracker Nielsen said on Thursday, 29 December 2011.
Google received an average of 153.4 million unique US visitors a month from home and work computers, according to Nielsen.

Facebook notched up 137.6 million unique US visitors a month and Yahoo 130.1 million.

Microsoft's MSN, WindowsLive and Bing were next with 115.9 million unique US visitors a month, followed by YouTube with 106.7 million.

Facebook, which boasts more than 800 million members worldwide, was the runaway leader in the category of social networks and blogs, Nielsen said.

The social networking website's 137.6 million unique monthly visitors were more than triple the 45.7 million a month for Blogger and nearly six times the 23.6 million a month for Twitter, Nielsen said.

Struggling social network Myspace attracted an average of 17.9 million unique US visitors a month while Google's new social network, Google+, got 8.2 million a month, according to Nielsen.

Thank you for providing an interesting topic here. A while ago, I came across an article connected with this, and it was entitled:"Google, Facebook top web brands of 2011, states Nielsen." The Nielsen Media Research business has released its 2011 list of the most-viewed web brands for the year. Not many people will be amazed to find out that Google topped the list, with Facebook arriving close behind it. Well, I am not surprised that Google spearheaded the list and got the lion's share of users! The said site deserved to be number one because of its broad access to any sites.
