Traffic is a great indicator of websites’ popularity as it essentially tells you how many visitors enter the site every month of the year. While music sites are not really that big compared to other social networking sites in terms of traffic, they are still among the most visited sites online.

The list includes music streaming platforms, online music shops, radio stations, blogs, and more. You might be surprised by the list below as sites like music.163.com and worldstarhiphop.com are extremely popular and generate more traffic than some of the most famous music sites.  Spotify, of course, is at the top of the list and remains the most popular music site as of 2020.
