By studying data, Zyro recorded the number of monthly visits and average visit duration. to figure out just how much time people spend doing whatever it is they do: watch videos? read the news? or even late night curiosities that only Google can answer.
Unsurprisingly, Google, YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram made up the top five of the list. "Google.com is the world’s most visited website, no matter how you count it," the study said. "Out of the top 20 sites with the most visits, Google has the second-highest visit duration: 11:58 minutes. Times that by a trillion annual visits and we’re spending 1.6 million years per year on Google's search engine alone."
