Firefox Number One Here

Take a look at some of my site stats, showing Firefox as the clear leader. I’m impressed.

Browsers (Top 10)  
  Browsers Percent
Firefox 37.1 %
MS Internet Explorer 32 %
Unknown 14.7 %
Mozilla 8.2 %
NetNewsWire 2.1 %
Safari 2 %
Opera 1.6 %
Netscape 1.2 %
Konqueror 0.2 %
Curl 0 %
  Others 0.4 %

IE doesn’t even have 1/3. The unknown agents are almost entirely feedreaders. These stats are for the google subdomain. The microsoft domain (which has less readers) shows feed readers as number one, followed by IE and then Firefox.

  4. Keith: I severely doubt it. If you were all of those visits, your aggregator would be hitting my site every two minutes, every hour, out of every day for the last month. I think you are severly underestimating my traffic. :-)

  5. Then yay. Others have seen the light.

    There’s a reason us Mac users say it’s the best RSS reader anywhere.
