"The list excludes adult sites, ad networks, domains that don't have publicly visible content or don't load properly, and certain Google sites", Google said.
Second in the line is Yahoo with about 490 million unique visitors, visiting in April. In addition, Yahoo catered to 70 billion page views during the month.
Yahoo was followed by Microsoft's live online services in the two and three spots with 39 billion page views coupled with 370 million unique visitors.
