The US has been the most innovative country in the world for a long time. Why wouldn't they dominate the internet that they invented. English is the most commonly spoken language in the world and since Americans are native English speakers, this probably also helps, but I don't know why the other English speaking countries haven't made more inroads on a world-wide basis. I'm sure that there are many local websites that are widely used by local people in most areas as was stated in another answer.

i'm purely guessing yet i think it has something to do with the reality that usa invented the internet and extra individuals have been in touch with own computers in the beginning up. (the backside putting fruit thought). upload to that the reality that the inhabitants of the U.S. is significantly better so there's a extra physically powerful skills pool. Then there is the easy actuality that the yank subculture is the subculture of the rugged individualist. that's fairly conducive to the guy entrepreneur. We embody innovation and inspire man or woman acheivement better than probable the different u . s . a . in the international. .

it is not that others do not grow - whenever a non-us company is successful, a big rich US company buys it. Examples: icq (Isareli company, bought by AOL) and Skype (Europeam company bought by ebay).
another reason: usually, other companies are more interested in their local markets. Sometimes (like the case of chinese companies) the local market is very big and they fend off American companies.
