Internet users logging in from desktops are smaller than mobile

The company StatCounter recorded a fact: worldwide, the number of Internet connections using mobile devices for the first time in the entire history of observations exceeded the number of calls to the global network made from personal computers. The ratio is 51.3% of the total traffic from tablets and smartphones and 48.7% from desktop computers.

Another interesting fact was discovered. Market maturity affects the prevailing way to access the Internet. In developing India, the share of Internet access from mobile platforms is three quarters. In more “experienced” markets - in countries such as the United States and the United Kingdom - the scales are still leaning in favor of desktop computers. However, the trend shows that the difference in numbers decreases. Ratio for USA: 58% for desktop PCs and 42% for mobiles and tablets. Great Britain: 55.6% against 44.4% respectively.

How did we come to this point

Since the advent of mobile Internet technologies, the number of PC users has begun to decline. The graph shows that the two lines must have crossed at one point. The number of mobile Internet users grew from scratch, and the number of PC users, on the contrary, tends to it. The graphs of the monitoring company show data from 2009.

In April 2015, comScore reported that the number of exclusively mobile users (mobile-only) of the Internet in the United States exceeded the number of desktop-only ones (desktop-only). Google last May announced the dominant share of mobile search queries.

What does this mean for the future

If until that moment there were still companies that relied on stationary technologies, it is now clear to everyone that the focus should be on any portable gadgets that are easy to take with you. Even if a person travels by private transport, it is still more convenient and easier for him to take a minimum with him, which does not require special conditions for operation. Any site that does not have a mobile version can go unnoticed by users. Even if he possesses super-useful material. Optimization is more necessary.
