According to research done by Matthew Gray, author of the World Wide Web Wanderer, the first autonomous agent on the Web, there were only 30 commercial Web sites in 1993, and only 10,000 Web sites existed by the end of 1994. However, those numbers continue to rise dramatically: OCLC statistics show that the number of Web sites increased from 1,570,000 in 1997 to 2,851,000 in 1998 - to 4,882,000 in 1999.

Web volatility has emerged as a major issue in research: One recent study by OCLC revealed that the number of IP addresses that were no longer associated with a Web site they had been associated with the previous year was an alarming 44 percent between 1998 and 1999.
