About & methodology
Global Market Share republishes brand market-share rankings worldwide and by country from Statcounter Global Stats. Every percentage on this site comes from a Statcounter monthly CSV download. We do not invent, estimate, or seed figures.
Coverage
Markets are config-driven in src/config/markets.json:
Worldwide, six regions (including Africa as a region), and about twenty countries. Categories
are Mobile Phones and Web Browsers.
What we measure
- Mobile phones: vendor market share from active mobile web usage across tracked regional network traffic.
- Web browsers: browser market share from page views across desktop, mobile, and tablet traffic.
How rankings are built
- Download the latest complete calendar month CSV from Statcounter for each market.
- Drop Other and Unknown rows, and any brand at or below 0.1% share.
- Keep the top 10 remaining brands (minimum 3 required to publish a page).
- Year-over-year change is shown only when the same month from the prior year was also fetched successfully; otherwise it stays blank.
