Netcraft says that 1.7 million hostnames at Go Daddy that had been listed by its survey as "other" in April are now recognized as Apache sites running Linux. Because of changes in Go Daddy's bulk hosting service, large blocks of Apache sites at the company have shifted back and forth between Apache and other since January.
The new shift gave Apache a gain of 2 percent market share for the month. It dropped 5.7 percent market share last month, when Go Daddy shifted more than 4 million hostnames from Apache to Windows Server 2003, choosing to host its parked domains on that platform. This month, Windows Server 2003 gained 143,000 hostnames through that particular Go Daddy service.
Netcraft says the May 2006 survey received responses from 81,565,877 sites, an increase of 909,000 from the April survey. The company says the Internet has grown by 7.2 million hostnames so far in 2006, and is on pace for 17 million hostnames this year. The record of 17.5 million was set in 2005. | Reads: 965 | Category: General | Source: TheWHIR : Web Host Industry Reviews
