In the Netherlands an early very (1998) popular web page is http://www.startpagina.nl , and it's still popular with non-tech savvy people. http://www.nu.nl (1999) is the country's most popular news page, http://www.marktplaats.nl (1999) the most popular Craig's list / Ebay equivalent.

They have all tweaked their UI over two decades if you look closely but make sure they look more or less the same as ever.

Actually Teletext ( https://nos.nl/teletekst ) is still used by many and it looks exactly like it does on TV.

Teletekst is an outlier, because it did not start as a web page, but the design has been consistent over the years and I still use the site and the app for news, TV guide and weather forecast daily!
https://www.gratiz.nl/ (1996) also never changed its winning recipe.
MP got reworked extensively, they did keep their colorscheme.
