ChatGPT climbed to fifth place among the world’s most visited websites in April, outpacing rivals in the AI space despite increasing competition, including from China’s DeepSeek.
OpenAI’s ChatGPT secured its position as the world’s fifth most visited website in April, according to data from Similarweb compiled by Anadolu Agency.
Despite facing stiff competition this year, particularly from the free and open-source Chinese AI chatbot DeepSeek, ChatGPT reclaimed its spot in the global top five last month.
Google remained the undisputed leader with 81.31 billion monthly visits, followed by YouTube (28.68 billion), Facebook (11.56 billion), and Instagram (6.17 billion). ChatGPT’s rise marks a significant leap from its ninth-place ranking last year, as highlighted by We Are Social’s 2024 report.
In the AI tools category, ChatGPT held a commanding lead in April with 4.7 billion monthly visitors, far ahead of second-place Canva, which saw 887 million visits. Google Translate followed with 595 million.
China’s DeepSeek, known for its cost-effectiveness and surprising capabilities, placed fourth, while Character.AI, JanitorAI, and Perplexity occupied the next three spots. Google’s Gemini ranked eighth with 118 million visits, down more than 9% from January. Remove.bg and Claude rounded out the top ten with 112 million and 105 million monthly visits, respectively.
