Facebook Passes Yahoo As 2nd Most Visited Site

We already know that Internet users are spending most of their time on Facebook more than any other site.  Despite the time spent on the site, Google continues to dominate the web as the most visited site on the web. 

However a new report from Compete.com shows that Facebook has now taken out Yahoo as the second most visited site on the web.  At one time Yahoo dominated the web for sure, until about 2 years ago when Google stole the spot from the company.  And since then, most of Yahoo’s traffic has slowly been declining, as Facebook’s rapidly increasing. 

For the first time on a consitant level, Facebook surpassed Yahoo with roughly 133.62 million unique views in January.  Compare that to Yahoo’s 132.00 million views for the month.
