Browser Statistics - January 2011

The web browser statistics have been released through January 2011. The stats are published monthly at W3CSchools.com.

Below are the web browser stats for January 2011.

2011 IE9 IE8 IE7 IE6
January .5% 16.6% 5.7% 3.8%
2011 Firefox Chrome Safari Opera
January 42.8% 23.8 4.0 2.5%

In summary, IE9 is at a quick standstill while other IE users seem to either be upgrading to IE8 or switching browsers completely (by the way, IE6 is finally under the 4% mark, hallelujah!). There’s been a slight dip in Firefox users while Chrome is still steadily gaining popularity. Safari and Opera continue to wade in their usual percentage ranges.
