I read the report, so you don't have to. Here are the main highlights:

Internet Traffic Growth Remains Strong

According to Cloudflare's report, global internet traffic grew 25% in 2023, continuing the rapid growth trend of previous years. This illustrates the importance of the Internet for healthcare networks, businesses, and connecting people. With the increasing number of devices connecting and the emergence of new services, traffic volumes are not slowing down.

Google Regains Top Spot

This year, Google has reclaimed its place as the most visited domain worldwide after losing the top spot to TikTok in 2022. In terms of popularity, social networks such as TikTok, Facebook, and Twitter still rank highly. Cloudflare's data provides a unique perspective on changing consumer preferences.

One-third of Traffic Could Be IPv6

IPv6 adoption continues gradually, with 33.75% of requests to Cloudflare capable of supporting the new protocol. Only one-third of the requests capable of using IPv6 were actually using IPv6. As more devices and networks upgrade to IPv6, its use will grow rapidly to handle tomorrow's internet traffic volumes.

United States Leads in Bot Traffic

According to Cloudflare, the United States accounted for 33.2% of all global bot traffic observed in 2023. Despite some bots being useful, malicious bots remain a significant threat that security teams must monitor and counter.

Regional Insights

Data from the Cloudflare Radar reveals fascinating regional differences in internet use. In Muslim countries, traffic dropped during Ramadan, while in Mauritania, traffic plummeted during government shutdowns. The average internet speed in Iceland remains the fastest in the world.
