Conflicting figures come to fall on the market for Internet browsers. Some benefit to proclaim loud and clear that chromium is passed before Firefox. Are they right?
You are probably already fallen on a news which announced that the Internet: Google's Chrome browser, has to pass before Firefox at the global level. This is true. Finally only if one focuses on the figures provided by StatCounter that place for the first time over the Mozilla browser with 25,69% of market share, 25.23% chromium. Internet Explorer on the head despite his unbroken fall with 40,63%.
Then, Chrome before Firefox? Perhaps not entirely. Indeed, if one prefers to opt for the figures from Net Applications, Chrome is still behind Firefox, the latter keeping the advantage with 22.14% of market share against 18.18% for Google browser. A more pronounced difference, so that Internet Explorer is always above 50% with 52,64% of market share.
Disparities of course explained by the methodology and sites referents taken into account in the calculations are based on the analysis of the statistics of visit of large panels of Web sites. What also makes StatCounter to announce that Windows 7 has benefited last weeks to pass before Windows XP with 41.1% of market share against 37.9% at the global level. While Net Applications shows 34.6% for Windows 7 and 48.9% for Windows XP.
If trends are nevertheless similar, impossible to know who really is right. All one can do is remind the basis for the calculation of each. StatCounter aggregation and analysis 5 billion Web pages every month and more than 3 million sites. NET Applications is working on a much smaller sites panel, about 40,000, but adds to its analysis data obtained from its partners, which include the largest industry groups.
Difficult to them. Therefore say that chromium dangerously competition Firefox, and that Windows 7 is taking precedence over XP, history should not be set...
