Netcraft September Web Server Ranking: Microsoft, Apache and nginx are on the top 3
Netcraft has just released a web server survey report for September 2018. The top three are still Microsoft, Apache and nginx.
As before, Apache still leads the way in domains, active sites, Web-facing computers, and millions of TOP sites, but its share has been declining for a long time.
In the web-oriented computer market, nginx is the only major web server provider to grow this month, with an increase of more than 41,000 sites (+ 2%), and its market share has risen to 27.0%, gradually opening the gap with Microsoft.
In addition to these major suppliers, the biggest gains in September were two little-known server software – Pepyaka added more than 2 million domain names, and DPS added 893,000 domain names, ranking 11th and 7th. Among them, Pepyaka is a customer site created by GoDaddy specifically for hosting with its website building tools. Pepyaka is mainly used by the Wix Web development platform on the Amazon AWS infrastructure.

The monthly research data published by Netcraft’s official website (Web Server Survey) has become the main reference for people to understand the number of global websites and the market share of servers. It is often reported or quoted by media such as Wall Street Magazine, British BBC, and Slashdot.
