Hi all,


The March 2026 crawl consists of 1.97 billion web pages (or 344.64 TiB of uncompressed content). Captures are from 44 million hosts or 36.1 million registered domains and include 600 million new URLs, not visited in any of our prior crawls.

In this crawl, we observed a dramatic increase in fetches over IPv6, explained by the enabling of Happy Eyeballs in the OkHttp library. See the announcement blog post below for more details, and our recent analysis on IPv6 adoption rates.  

The corresponding Web Graph release consists of 270.2 million nodes and 9 billion edges at the host level, and 120 million nodes and 4.4 billion edges at the domain level.


Have fun!
Luca
