    Go Mweb!
    They seem quite big in the local hosting market!

    News24, Supersport and Mweb are all Naspers companies so you can't really say that from this list.

    It's obvious that Naspers will prefer to host it's subsidiaries' websites, makes business sense.

    So Internet Solutions is the true winner there.

    Its that address that automatically loads up when you open IE by default (In SA). So the numbers are incredibly artificial and superficial.

    Yip, same for Vodacom and Microsoft... so we left with:

    News24 MWEB
    IOL Internet Solutions
    News24 mobile MWEB
    MyBroadband Hetzner
    TimesLive Internet Solutions
    JunkMail Internet Solutions

    Why differentiate between new24 and news24 mobile? Honestly a bigger sample of websites would have made sense... with the likes of gumtree.co.za, bidorbuy.co.za etc...

    Didn't have a clue what the article was on about, but the table at the end was interesting.
