What is the oldest website, or the first website? The answer is a bit fuzzy if you try to find what is the oldest site in history. I expected to find the answer in Yahoo Answers, or Wikipedia, but I had to get information in a deeper way.
This link will refer you to one of the most accurate answers to be found. It says that the first site was nxoc01.cern.ch. When trying to enter the page you will see that it is offline, or it no longer exists.
Though you can enter to info.cern.ch , site maintained by Tim Berners-Lee and Robert Cailliau and which is listed as the site of the first web server. The site had as a server a Tim's computer, and it ran in a computer of the same person.
However, others speak of Symbolics.com . Moreover, if you visit this page you will see that it calls itself the first and oldest ".com" on the Internet.
There are also indications of the Microsoft website especially because this company made the Internet Explorer which is quite old. But here's another aspect: the debate on which was the first Internet browser. One might suggest to Internet Explorer, but experts on the matter mention the browser called NCSA Mosaic. On Wikipedia we have enough information of this browser.
The Wikipedia article on Mosaic included references to other browsers that were before, less known, like the Erwise and ViolaWWW. See article on Wikipedia.
The fact that the Internet Explorer is not the first Web browser takes away some strength to the assumption that the Microsoft website was the first to exist.
Perhaps the question of what is the first website is also too open. What was the first one open to the public? This is because some sites may have existed before in a trial version and only a few developers could enter them.
