I just analyzed the statistics for visitors to this site in January 2010 and January 2011.
In January 2010, here were the top four web browsers used by you:
- Internet Explorer
- Firefox
- Safari
- Chrome
In January 2011, here were the top four web browsers used by you:
- Internet Explorer
- Firefox
- Safari
- Chrome
You'll note the order remains the same, but there were significant changes when you compare the actual visits year-over-year. Here's the change from 2010 to 2011:
Although still the top dog, Internet Explorer visits fell by 14%, despite the fact overall traffic over this period increased by 17.95%. Firefox traffic was virtually unchanged, which means large increases by Safari and Chrome made up the IE difference.
Chrome users increased by 131% in just one year. That's pretty stunning, but maybe not. I'm one of those converts.
Are you loyal to your browser? If so, which one has your heart?
