New Web Browsers are launched and everyone is confused on what to use and what not to use. The statistics normally say that there is a tight competition for every website between Internet Explorer & Mozilla Firefox followed by Google Chrome which is slowly gaining. The stats depends on the websites content mainly because if you are running a website on Apple related products there are more chances that Mac users would read your website and they would access it though Safari browser. Here are some stats of my blog for the past month which shows that Mozilla Firefox has been in the lead with 42.46% share.

Here are few reasons why i use the Top 3 browsers simultaneously :
- Internet Explorer – This is the browser which is pre installed on most of the Windows Operating System Based Computers and which is the main reason most computer users who are new to the internet generally use IE for browsing activities. This is a very important point which should be noted because you need to make sure your website runs perfectly in IE as its the default browsers for Microsoft Windows OS Users. I use Internet Explorer for checking my own websites and also access most Microsoft websites since they work perfectly only on IE. I use Internet Explorer only 5% of my total usage time because it hangs continiously, does not load web pages on the tabs except the main tab and is usually slow because it tries to load the whole content in the background and then show up everything once.
- Mozilla Firefox – My favourite which i use 90% of the time because of the Add-ons and themes. The firefox browser loads the pages quickly because of its excellent features and i use the default theme along with Page Speed from Google The Add-ons i use on this browser are –
ColorZilla – For finding the Hex Code of any Portion of a webpage in order to use it while setting up adsense colours.
Gmail Manager – I have got more than 10 different email accounts to manage and this plugin just rocks because i can read and get updates on all of these automatically.
Google Gears – This is a awesome tool i use for accessing my Gmail Account Offline while iam not connected to the internet and the changes made in my email are synchronized back when iam connected to the internet.
GreaseMonkey – This Add-on is installed to block search wiki
ScreenGrab – To take full screen and selected portion screenshots with the highest quality
SearchStatus – In order to find out the Total Indexed Pages , Backlinks, Domain Registration Information, Archive Stats, robots.txt, sitemaps, highlighting nofollow links on any pages etc
TwitterFox – For managing multiple Twitter Accounts, along with auto shrinking URL’s while tweeting
XMarks – For having a secured copy of all my browser bookmarks and passwords and getting them back when iam at my office or any other laptop. - Google Chrome : Can become my favorite browser only if extentions are supported. I normally use this browser only when iam on a real slow internet connection in order to access Gmail, because it loads in better speed compared to other browsers. Still its better than Internet Explorer because it rarely gets hanged.
What is your Favorite Browser which you use daily and what is the reason behind it?
Hi amit i am also using fierfox most of time. It has realy great feature
I like opera for surfing it is fast and speed dil feature . chrome has many loop holes.
i prefer mozilla while blogging.
I love bits and pieces from different web browsers 🙁
Safari for its font rendering, Firefox for its extensions, and Chrome for its stability & speed. Opera..er..I used to love it but other browsers provide similar funtionalities nowadays
thanks. it’s a really usefull
i used Safari & i surprised it works so fast & safly in this 1 loop hole many extantions not works with it
I use Opera for working on my website and speed is amazing.
I use Chrome, its fast and user friendly and I like it a lot. Ya. there are less or no plugins for it but i usually don’t need any so works for me!
Firefox is always the first choice of webmasters.I mostly use Firefox.The Add-ons are responsible for making Firefox the best browser among all browsers.Moreover,One can introduce features similar to other browsers in Firefox using Add-ons.
Well,My second choice is Safari.The graphical interface is just awesome.A web page open in safari looks much better then any other browser.Safari is light and fast also.But one thing that i like in safari is Web Inspector option available in develop menu.
After these,I like Chrome,Opera and last is Internet Explorer respectively.
My all time favorite since it’s lunch is Firefox.
basically this is what is think internet explorer:for people who dont know the latest technology firefox:for people who love speed and all the addons google chrome: for speed and for people who are awsome opera:if you want to run a browser which nintendo wii use to power their browser maxthon for people who like speed and hate ie and avant for people who want to have a old looking browser so thats it realy firefox and google chrome are the best
