IE still has over a 16% market share, although that is declining rapidly. The latest Zero Day security vulnerability is accelerating that.

Browser Statistics

Where are they pulling their statistics from?

Here is a note from the page: "The statistics above are extracted from W3Schools' log-files, but we are also monitoring other sources around the Internet to assure the quality of these figures."

So they actually don't know the percentage. They are just giving out random numbers.

That is not what I read from the message. They are using their own server statistics and also other info from the web. No one knows with certainty what the absolute numbers are across the entire web. I have to assume that the W3Schools' info is mostly from techie types and people who are interested in learning HTML.

Chrome is as good as Firefox IMO. Press F12 to get awesome web developer tools in Chrome like the web developer add-on for FF.

I block affiliate links in robots.txt by the redirect link stem e.g. goto/affiliate-site

robots.txt code:

Code:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /goto/
