To assist with exploring and using the dataset, we’ve provided gzipped files that list:

By simply adding either s3://commoncrawl/ or https://data.commoncrawl.org/ to each line, you end up with the S3 and HTTP paths respectively.

The release also includes the March 2015 Common Crawl Index, introduced last month by Ilya Kreymer, creator of https://webrecorder.io/. The Common Crawl Index offers a fascinating and new way to explore the dataset! For full details, refer to Ilya's guest blog post.

Please donate to Common Crawl if you appreciate our free datasets! We're also seeking corporate sponsors to partner with Common Crawl for our non-profit work in big open data! Contact info@commoncrawl.org for sponsorship information and packages.
