Google Chrome v/s Internet Explorer: Which is the best? – Technology Times


While Chrome is leading the browser market worldwide, in the U.S. it still has a lot of catching up to do. Much like the Mac VS PC war, the browser conflict battles on. Google Chrome is now the most common browser. This time however, Chrome overtook IE for the entire week, though by still less than a percentage point. These stats come from the web analytics firm Stat Counter. They say that Chrome has jumped to the top spot last week. The stats for chrome are 32.76% of the browser market share, whilst Internet Explorer had a 31.94%. Firefox has a 25.5, Safari with 7.1 5and then Opera with 1.7% share. On the other hand, Chrome is not the leading browser in the U.S. This is not the first time Chrome has leapfrogged Internet Explorer. For a single day in March, Chrome was estimated to have held a few percentage decimals over IE.

The most common in there is Internet Explorer, leading with a 37% share with Chrome only 23%.  Asia and South America seem to contribute most to the Chrome traffic share, while Internet Explorer and Firefox are dominant in North America and Europe respectively. Microsoft’s Internet Explorer still has a wide lead at home with 37 percent, with Chrome a distant second at 23 percent, closely followed by Mozilla Firefox 22 percent. Coming to the country specific numbers, Chrome continues to grab the first spot in India with around 8pc lead over Mozilla's Firefox. On the other hand, Internet Explorer rules Japan, China and South Korea with more than 50pc of the traffic share. The browser added tab syncing, also, Chrome updates itself, without you even knowing. This is why I think Chrome is such a big hit; it just works, and works really well. It’s fluent, speedy and of course, secure. Chrome's popularity has surged in the last year thanks largely to a regular update schedule that continually brings the addition of new features including the popular multi-user accounts functionality outed in Chrome 16 and an Android iteration that syncs with the desktop app.
