So Safari has bigger market share than Internet Explorer and Firefox? Visitors to their site maybe, but this are not worldwide usage statistics.

 

FWIW http://www.zdnet.com/net-market-sha...online-measurements-can-you-trust-7000024776/

 

Anyone who has IE at 10% market share mark can't be taken seriously.

 

I was wondering about the same...

 

Worldwide Firefox market Share: April 2014
Firefox 29, 0.70%
Firefox 28, 12.28%
Firefox old, 4.02%

Total Firefox share = 17.00%

Worldwide Chrome market Share: April 2014
Chrome 34, 8.64%
Chrome 33, 5.27%
Chrome old, 4.01%

Total Chrome share = 17.92%

Worldwide IE market Share: April 2014
IE11, 16.61%
IE10, 6.85%
IE9, 8.89%
IE8, 20.85%
IE7, 0.71%
IE6, 3.73%

Total IE share = 57.64%

IE is still by far the most popular browser, according to Net Applications. Shareaholic
tracked 250 million users visiting its network of 200,000 publishers while Net Applications
captures data from 160 million unique visitors each month by monitoring some 40,000 websites
for its clients.

Shareaholic is including mobile browsers in its data while Net Applications keeps desktop
and mobile stats separate. Shareaholic’s data encompasses the usage of browsers by measuring
how many webpages are viewed by each browser. Net Applications meanwhile looks at users by
measuring how many people using each browser are viewing webpages. It’s important to make
the distinction between usage and users if you plan to look at “market share” figures.

StatCounter listed Chrome as first with 45.22 percent, IE in second with 21.43 percent, Firefox
in third with 18.62 percent, Safari with 9.79 percent, and Opera with 1.39 percent for April
2014.
