Top Five Browser Market Share Rankings

From Janco

Janco and the IT Productivity Center have released their Browser and Operating System Market Share
White Paper. The major findings are: Microsoft’s browser market share has continued to erode and has fallen to 58.50% versus 65.48% (loss of 6.96%) in August 2007 and 82.99% (loss of 24.49%) in August 2005; Firefox has maintained its number 2 browser position and now is used by almost 19% (18.94%) of all users; Google Desktop has over 4% (4.01%) of the market; and Time Warner made a strategic error in abandoning Netscape as users continue to use Netscape even though AOL no longer supports it.

Janco’s top five browser market share rankings:

1 - Microsoft’s IE – 58.50%

2 - Firefox – 18.94%

3 - Netscape – 11.63%

4 - Google Desktop – 4.01%

5 - Mozilla – 3.05%
