Generations characteristics and information are introduced and compared. There is not any specific research about web generation from the web advent but it is an analytical distinction that outlined qualities of web Keywords: Web 1.0, Web 2.0, Web3.0, Web 4.0, Web 5.0, I. Introduction: The World Wide Web was established with the objective of accessing the data from anywhere at any time in form of interlinked hypertext language. The World Wide Web (known as the web) is not homologous to internet but is the most obtrusive part of the internet that can be defined as techno-social system for the interaction between human and technological networks. Techno-social system defines as a system that enhances human percipience, verbalization, affiliation, and Integration. In other words affiliation needs verbalization and verbalization needs percipience being integrated [3]. Largest transformable-information constructs i.e. Web introduce by Tim Burners-Lee in 1989 at first [5][6]. Immense progress had been made about web and related technologies. Web 1.0 referred as a web of information or percipience, Web 2.0 as web of verbalization, web 3.0 as web of affiliation and web 4.0 as a web of integration and Web 5.0 as web of Decentralized smart communicator. II. Web 1.0 Web 1.0 is the first generation of web and was created in 1989 by Tim Berners-Lee, Working at CERN (The European Organization for Nuclear Research) in Geneva, Switzerland. The web 1.0 was first implementation of the web and it lasted from 1989 to 2005. It was define as web of information connections or a web of cognition/percipience. Web 1.0 was consider as read-only web with very little interaction where consumer can exchange the information together but it was not possible to interact with the website. The role was very passive [1]. Web 1.0 is retronym which refers to the first state / version of the World Wide Web which was basically considered as “is an information space in which the items of interest, referred to as resources, are identified by global identifiers called Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs).” [9]. the first implementation of the web represents the web 1.0, which, according to Berners-Lee, could be considered the “read-only web.” In other words, the early web allowed us to search for information and read it. There was very little in the way of user interaction or content contribution. However, this is exactly what most website owners wanted: Their goal for a website was to establish an online presence and make their information available to anyone at any time [10] and included in the websites published during the period between 1994 to 2004 which was not possible without the knowledge of HTML and the content of the web was merely static. and the characteristics for the Web 1.0 pages as Following.  It includes static web pages and use basic HTML (Hypertext Markup Language).  They have read only content.  The web master is solely responsible for updating users and managing the content of website.  They do not support mass-publishing.  Webmaster manually assigns all the hyperlinks to the content of the web page.  The contact information provided by the Web 1.0 is email, fax, phone number and address.  They use Frameset.  The Web 1.0 pages can only be understood by humans (web readers) they do not have machine compatible Content [11]. Web 1.0 Technologies includes core web protocols: HTML, HTTP and URI Newer Protocols:XML, XHTML, CSS Server-Side Scripting: ASP, PHP, JSP, CGI and PERL Client-Side Scripting : JavaScript, VBScript and Flash.
