Goodbye, Alexa. Hello, Cloudflare Radar Domain Rankings

What's this blog post about?

Cloudflare has launched a new dataset called Radar Domain Rankings (Beta), which aims to identify the top most popular domains based on how people use the Internet globally, without tracking individuals' internet use. The dataset is based on aggregated 1.1.1.1 resolver data that is anonymized in accordance with Cloudflare's privacy commitments. Domain Rankings takes into account differences in domain names and defines popularity as the size of the population of users that look up a domain per unit of time. The model uses machine learning to predict the rank of a domain, and results are available on the Cloudflare Radar website.
