Frequently asked questions
Can I get the list of sites behind a W3Techs stat?
Not from W3Techs. That's exactly the gap Web Radar fills: we sell the domain list, not the stat.
Are Web Radar market-share stats as authoritative as W3Techs?
Our sample is different. We over-index on businesses with real revenue signal, not just high traffic. Better for B2B, less comparable for general web stats.
Does Web Radar publish free stats like W3Techs?
We expose per-technology adoption on /technologies/[slug]. More granular than W3Techs on B2B tech, shallower on generic web tech.
Can I use W3Techs + Web Radar together?
Yes. W3Techs for the 'what's trending' pitch, Web Radar for the 'send me the list'.
