There’s a war going on out there.
For those who don’t follow this kind of thing, a few years ago, Internet Explorer (IE) was king, with close to a 90% market share.
(Before that, of course, was Netscape, but we won’t talk about that).
The only real competition was Apple’s Safari which their computers used, but that was a low percentage since Apple’s market share has always been small.
But for a few years now, Firefox (FF) has been nibbling away at IE’s market share. In some areas and industries FF is giving IE a run for its money.
More recently, Google’s Chrome browser has been rapidly gaining market share.
So far this year, 38% of visitors to FastF’s website are using IE, 29% Firefox, 18% Safari, 14% Chrome. A variety of other browsers add up to less than 2%.
So why is this and where is it all going?
What is the turf on which The Browser Wars are being fought?
Stay tuned….
