Going 100% by vibes regarding this, but I feel "introduced the world to" / "introduced x to the world" being a very established phrase is what makes it overpower the awkwardness that's otherwise present.
For example, "Or Action Comics #1 introduced Superman." immediately feels more awkward, the reason it's not quite as awkward as RedHat's example is because it's in-context and doesn't explicitly mention "website", so one could conceivably mistake it for a magazine instead (which I take it probably was/is, an online one specifically).
Using "website" like this is like suggesting they're a publication or a periodical of some sort, which is true for some, but not in general (e.g. news sites?), making it weird.
