The site, in 1995

The website of Der Standard, a Vienna daily newspaper founded in 1988, with its own online newsroom alongside the print edition's stories.

It went online on 2 February 1995, the first website of any German-language daily newspaper, and soon had its own editorial team. In October 2021 visitors stayed longer on it than on any other Austrian news site.

In 1995: Went online on 2 February; the same year founder Oscar Bronner bought back Axel Springer's half of the paper.

Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
