Wed, 19 April 2006

Although it maintains its standing as the No. 3 browser on the Internet, a recent market share report by Net Applications shows Apple’s WebKit-based Safari to have garnered a 3.19 percent share in March, an increase of 1.81 percent from last year.

During the same time period, Microsoft’s Internet Explorer saw its market share slip over 3 percent, from 88 percent down to 84.70 percent. FireFox — the only other browser to succeed Safari in the rankings — appears to have benefitted the greatest from Explorer’s slump, posting a near 3 percent gain to 10.05 percent market share, up from 7.38 percent a year ago.
