October 12, 2007 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Web analytics firm Netcraft (netcraft.com) announced on Thursday that it has released the results of its October 2007 Web Server Survey. The firm says it received responses from 142,805,398 websites, an increase of 7.6 million sites since last month, which continues the rate of over five percent monthly growth, as seen in September.

Benefiting from the gains at MySpace and Microsoft Live, Microsoft-IIS now hosts over 50 million websites. MySpace, Microsoft Live.com and Google's Blogger each gained over one million sites this month.

Apache lost a 2.8 percent share, partly due to major growth with blogging systems and partly due to 2.5 million domains on Apache expiring at trouble-free.net. Apache currently has around a 10 percent market share advantage over IIS, which the company says is the smallest gap between the two since IIS was launched in 1996.

In terms of active sites, Apache saw a gain of one million sites while Microsoft-IIS saw a steady growth of almost three million.

Netcraft also recently reported on search engine giant Google's vulnerability in its Gmail Web-based email service.
