I wonder how this compares the the number of businesses that existed in 2013 that no longer exist. I wonder for two reasons:

• Is 38% similar to the typical rate of failure for businesses and other ventures?
• How much of the 38% can be explained by closure of high-risk businesses like restaurants?

Something else that could explain a lot of it is webpages that were always intended to be ephemeral. Political campaign websites for instance.
