22 years after its “official” foundation by Larry Page and Sergey Brin, Google is no longer the small company it was when it started. It has now almost become synonymous with the Internet, and has not left the pole position of the most visited sites in the world and in France for a long time, with 1.113 million visits in December 2019 alone. Two other giants, Facebook and Amazon scored a total of two and 1.3 million visits that month, respectively.
