Google Chrome is the Most Used Browser in the World

Google Chrome

For the first week in history, Internet Explorer fell to Google Chrome as the 'Most Used Browser in the World'.  While Chrome has been outperforming IE on weekends for some time now, the week of May 14th - 20th marks the first time Chrome has averaged higher traffic over a full seven day period.

However, Google Chrome is not the dominating browser in every country, despite being the most used browser in the world.

Here are some interesting facts;

• In North America, IE still leads Chrome 37 to 26 percent.
• In Europe, Firefox is 1st, followed by Chrome, then IE
• In Africa, Firefox is dominating both Chrome and IE
• In Japan, IE is the leader with over 50% of users
• In India, Chrome leads by 8%
• In South America, Chrom has nearly 50%
• In China and South Korea, three quarters of traffic comes through IE
