Host- and Domain-Level Web Graphs April, May, and June 2026
Common Crawl has released web graph datasets for April, May, and June 2026, featuring over 6 billion edges for large-scale link analysis.
What: Common Crawl provided new host- and domain-level graph data, allowing researchers and developers to analyze link structures across the web without performing original crawls.
Why it matters: Centralized, massive-scale link graph availability lowers the barrier to entry for training search infrastructure, link-prediction models, and network analysis tools.
