9% of mobile web accesses come from India

Category: VAS | 1 Comment | Posted on June 7, 2007

According to data compiled by UK-based Bango, 9% of all accesses to mobile websites now come from India, up from 4% a year ago.

Bango said it expects the mobile phone usage in India to exceed European levels within the next few years.

“We see that wherever flat-rate mobile data charges are pervasive in a country, then there’s much more web browsing,” Anderson added.

UK is the largest country in terms of the number of people accessing websites on mobiles, followed by the US and South Africa.
