Tiktok surpasses Google to become the most popular domain

 

For a very long time, Google was the ‘master’ of the Web. It was the most popular domain globally. This has now changed. It has been dethroned by TikTok as a study has shown.

The survey was carried out by the web security company Cloudfare. It conducted a study on the domains that gained the most traffic from one year to another and released the rankings. Last year’s research showed that Google, including Maps, Translate, News and other subsidiaries was at the top position. At the time, TikTok had the 7th place.

This year, things have changed drastically, with the video-sharing firm making a huge jump to reach the top. It surpassed the search engine firm, Facebook, Amazon and other giants. What does this imply? It means that TikTok’s website has received more traffic than any other domain. However, it does not show that it is the biggest social media site or that it has more users than others.

When it comes to the number of people using the apps, Facebook and Instagram are still at the top, with TikTok at the third position. Nonetheless, it has surpassed Snapchat and Twitter and is expected to grow more in 2022. That is why marketers should include the video sharing app into their social media marketing strategy next year.
