Latest Stats as at 22/7/2012
============================


These figures cover the 15-day period 1/7/2012 to 15/7/2012.

This time, a reasonable jump in visits from Androids and 
iPads/iPhones/iPods.  I have not spotted exactly why,
but it might well be quite normal.



Operating System Market Share
==============================

For the period 1st to 15th of July, these percentage figures 
are based on visits, with earlier figures in brackets:-

Windows-7 30.5 (32.6, 33.0, 32.9, 32.7, 34.4, 32.3, 34.3) 
XP 21.1 (22.3, 23.0, 26.2, 24.6, 25.0, 19.7, 23.7, 23.9)
Vista 5.7 (6.4, 6.8, 6.6, 6.6, 6.4, 7.7, 7.4, 7.3, 7.5, 7.6)
Pre-XP Windows 1.0 (0.9, 1.0, 1.0, 0.8, 1.0, 1.0, 1.1, 1.3)

The iPhone category includes iPads and iPods.  The breakup of 
the 21.4% figure is iPads 10.5%, iPhones 10.2% and iPods 0.7%.  
The iPad is ahead of the iPhone, and the iPod has 
declined in popularity as a device for surfing the web.

The total sample size above was 16607.



Browser Breakup
===============

Percentages of visits for the period 1st to 15th July 2012:-

IE 28.4 (31.0, 32.0, 36.7, 35.4, 36.2, 30.3, 36.1, 36.7)
Safari 30.2 (27.3, 26.4, 23.7, 24.8, 24.1, 28.3, 23.7)
Chrome 23.1 (22.5, 22.3, 21.2, 21.1, 20.7, 21.5, 20.8)

Opera 2.2 (2.3, 2.2, 2.3, 1.9, 1.9, 2.0, 2.2, 2.2, 2.2)
All Others 1.9 (1.7, 1.5, 1.6, 1.8, 1.4, 1.9, 1.5, 1.6)

As would be expected from the increase in Apple's market
share, the percentage of Safari is up too.  

What's more, it has passed Internet Explorer.  

However some web measurement companies are putting Chrome ahead 
of Internet Explorer and recording much higher figures for Firefox. 

The sample size was 16687 visits by humans.

Percentage breakup of visits coming via search engines 
for July 1st to 15th, 2012:-
