Chrome Pips Safari for Third Place in the US Browser Market
Google Chrome has been the third most popular browser in the world for quite some time now. According to web analytics firm StatCounter, the browser now occupies the third slot in the United States as well. Google's WebKit-based emerged as the third most used browser in the US for the week beginning June 21. This is the first time its market share in the US has gone past Safari's.
"This is quite a coup for Google as they have gone from zero to almost 10% of the US market in under two years," said Aodhan Cullen, CEO, StatCounter. "There is a battle royal going on between Google and Apple in the internet browser space (Chrome v Safari) as well as in the mobile market (Android v iPhone)."
StatCounter's report is based on a sample of 874 million US page views. Chrome now commands almost 9% of the US browser market, but still trails Firefox (28.5%) and Internet Explorer (52%) by a long way.
