List of countries by number of Internet hosts
Encyclopedia
This is the list of countries by number of Internet hosts
based on figures from the CIA World Factbook. Several dependent territories, not fully recognized states, and non-state territories are listed, but not ranked.
(*) The U.S. figure includes hosts in the .us, .mil, .gov, .edu, .com, .org, and .net domains. Other countries share heavily in the .com, .org, and .net domains, so the U.S. figure is significantly inflated and the figures for other countries are understated.
(**) The number of Canadian internet hosts is far higher (at least 10% of the U.S. figure), but there is no distinction made for other countries .com, .org, and .net sites.
