The first ever "website" was not really a website but a linking page between the Pentagon and several nearby Universities in the early 70's. They were just that, link-ups. And yes, most probably we could consider the initial webpages made by Berners-Lee at the CERN as the first website.
Then again, the name didn't exist at that time. Maybe a good question would be "when was the first website called a website?"
The computers involved in the networking weighed over 5 tonnes each and the computers involved themselves weighed over 100 tonnes each. It was originally done as an experiment to see if wires could handle mass information migrations (useful to the Pentagon as they could now send info to all their bases around the USA). If it wasnt for the success of this, maybe the internet would never have happened...

The first site that was ever to be created is not on the web anymore. It was the military sites, since the Internet was originally used by the military to get in contact with others. So after the World Wide Web was created they tore down what sites they had up, and just let everyone else post what they want. Hope that helps.
