I think from sometime in the 1990s through mid 2004 was a part of the Web 1.0 Internet. Late 2004 through mid 2006 was the transition to Web 2.0 Internet. I think by late 2006, Web 2.0 Internet took over. However, I assume by 2013 or 2014, all traces of Web 1.0 was gone.

I think the last time you had a good batch of active geocities and old school web 1.0 personal websites sites (used for personal pages, history or fan groups, selling goods) alongside people continuing to update older information sites made in 1994-2001, many of which would still show up on google search, official homepages still putting out news, updates, photos entirely from websites with no social media presence or new updates would be 2005-2007 and this was also when youtube was not the only the place to visit for videos, it didn't have as much as one would think, but many other sites like newsgrounds, metacafe for most of 2007.
I would consider 2005-2007 a transition leaning towards web 2.0, or web 2.0 with a some amount of web 1.0 left. Early web 2.0 factors like early social media, wikipedia and wiki sites, modern blogs, more innovative layout design and interactivity, and other factors were cemented by late 2004/2005, but a lot of those web 1.0 things were still hanging around for most of 2007, even if less than earlier. I would say they were mostly gone by 2008-2011.

This is an interesting question and I don't think there's just one right answer. Personally, I'd say some time during the early 2010s because there were still sites back then that hadn't had a redesign since the 90s or early 2000s. I think the final blow to Web 1.0 was businesses turning to social media to connect with customers instead of building standalone websites.
I consider the MySpace era to be Web 1.5. Also, many older Americans still used dial-up all the way up to the late 2000s. Web 2.0 sites are mostly unusable through a dial-up connection.
Forums such as this one are a remnant of Web 1.0. Like almost everything else in the old Internet, most people have moved onto social media.

I switched to DSL in late 04 right when myspace started buzzing, I always wondered what those sites were like on Dial up lol I imagine using DSL to play a myspace profile song on someones page would cause the browser to crash.

They had browser extension to stop certain things from playing to save bandwidth. Still, MySpace was too much for dial-up even though there were teens who had parents who wouldn't upgrade that had to get by wit hit.

Ugh I can't even imagine using Dial up on any website post 2004 lol DSL was pretty decent in those days
