Read on 26 October 2026, Vaneform’s fastest-growing websites board was on its August 2026 snapshot. The page ranks sites by added estimated monthly visits and states that the ranking compares 828,072 websites. vk.ru is first, at 1.04 billion estimated monthly visits, adding 512.06 million (+96.8%). chatgpt.com is second, at 5.64 billion, adding 188.02 million (+3.5%). auone.jp is third, at 345.3 million, adding 175.54 million (+103%). The table below is ranks 1–10 from that visit-gain order. The public embed’s eight rows match ranks 1–8.
August 2026, ranks 1–10 by added visits
Every figure in the table is the compact number the board prints for that row. The underlying snapshot date on these ten rows is 2026-08-31, the confidence stored with each row is medium, and each row carries the evidence labels similarweb_weft and provider_mom_change. vk.ru, chatgpt.com, cloud.microsoft, youtube.com and several others also carry ahrefs_dr. Categories are the industry labels stored on the row: search engine, all industries, developer tools, TV and streaming, faith and religion, online marketplace, sports betting and education.
The first page of the board is long enough to keep going past this ten. This report stops at ten because that is the set a reader can check against the top of the public page and the eight-row embed in one sitting. A later rank can still matter for a category question. instructure.com at rank 10 is the education row in this cut, with 276.1 million visits and 98.4 million added (+55.4%). cloud.microsoft at rank 4 is the developer-tools row, with 1.51 billion visits and 168.45 million added (+12.5%).
| Rank | Domain | Monthly visits | Added visits | Change | Category |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | vk.ru | 1.04B | +512.06M | +96.8% | Search engine |
| 2 | chatgpt.com | 5.64B | +188.02M | +3.5% | All industries |
| 3 | auone.jp | 345.3M | +175.54M | +103% | All industries |
| 4 | cloud.microsoft | 1.51B | +168.45M | +12.5% | Developer tools |
| 5 | youtube.com | 30.35B | +151M | +0.5% | TV, movie and streaming |
| 6 | seminarycentral.org | 176.1M | +146.47M | +494% | Faith and religion |
| 7 | sowve.com | 140.2M | +126.92M | +955% | All industries |
| 8 | temu.com | 1.23B | +117.6M | +10.6% | Online marketplace |
| 9 | parimatchs123.com | 220.6M | +105.83M | +92.2% | Sports betting |
| 10 | instructure.com | 276.1M | +98.4M | +55.4% | Education |
Added visits and the percent sit on the same row
The board’s default order is the added-visit column. youtube.com is fifth on that order: 30.35 billion estimated monthly visits and 151 million added, which prints as +0.5%. sowve.com is seventh: 140.2 million visits and 126.92 million added, which prints as +955%. seminarycentral.org is sixth: 176.1 million visits, 146.47 million added, +494%. A percent sort would lift the smaller bases. The visit-gain sort keeps youtube.com, temu.com (1.23 billion, +117.6 million, +10.6%) and cloud.microsoft in the top ten because the absolute addition is large.
Use the column that matches the decision. A partnership or a distribution plan that cares about how many additional visits appeared uses the added-visit column and the current level beside it. A watchlist of smaller sites uses the percent, and still keeps the current level so a 955% change is read next to 140.2 million visits. The board page can switch the sort. This report reprints the visit-gain order only, because that is the order captured on 26 October 2026.

Rank 14 on the same page is a worked case of a lower bound. kisskh.is shows 73.5 million estimated monthly visits. The previous-month visits field is empty, the change is flagged as a provider lower bound, and the board prints the change as >+72.06M and >+5000%. Keep the greater-than sign with the figure. The row still belongs to August 2026.
Open the report, then keep the month
Each domain in the table has a public report: vk.ru at /e/vk-ru, chatgpt.com at /e/chatgpt-com, youtube.com at /e/youtube-com, temu.com at /e/temu-com, and the same pattern for the others. The report is the place to read the visit series, sources and countries for that host. When you quote a rank from this page, quote the August 2026 snapshot and the 26 October 2026 read, then link the report. A sentence that says only “vk.ru is the fastest growing website” drops both dates.
A comparison of two domains belongs on a shared month. The bulk comparison page is the screen for that, after you have confirmed both reports still show August 2026 for the visits you intend to place side by side. The guide on analyzing traffic growth walks through baselines, an incomplete month and what a later month can change. This ranking answers a narrower question: who added the most estimated visits in the published August snapshot.
What was counted on 26 October 2026
The read happened on 2026-10-26. The board’s available month list at that moment contained 2026-08 only, and the page title carried August 2026. The Dataset description on the page said: vk.ru added the most estimated monthly visits (+512.06M, +96.8% month over month), followed by chatgpt.com (+188.02M) and auone.jp (+175.54M). The ranking compares 828,072 websites using public website rankings estimates. Adult sites are removed before the public list. The HTML item list on the first page named 96 domains. Ranks 1–10 above are the first ten of the visit-gain sort from that response.
The estimates are modelled whole-site monthly visits, worldwide, desktop and mobile web combined, compiled by Vaneform from public website rankings. The methodology page is the standing description of that lane. Compact figures such as 1.04B and +512.06M are the board’s display of the stored values, the same display the embed uses. This article does not recompute the sort and does not fill a missing previous month with zero. When a new month replaces August on the board, this page stays an August 2026 reading from October.

FAQ
Is the data month August or October?
The snapshot month is 2026-08. The page was read and published on 2026-10-26. A citation names both.
Which column decides “fastest growing” on this board?
The default order is added estimated monthly visits. The percent is the month-over-month change printed on the same row. Sorting by the percent is a separate order on the board.
What should I open after I pick a domain?
Open that domain’s report, keep August 2026 with the number, and use the bulk comparison only after both domains show the same month. The growth guide covers baselines and the next month.
