More than 50% of Indian netizens access internet via mobile (INFOGRAPHIC)
India is poised to become the second largest mobile internet market globally (after China) within the next four years. Effective Measure, a media planning and audience profiling company, has released the results of its latest digital audience data for the Indian market.
Effective Measure’s research shows mobile is the tool of choice in accessing online content. In July, 51 percent of Indian users accessed the internet from a mobile phone, while five percent accessed the internet from a tablet. The majority of Indian netizens are married, and most of those have at least one child. Combine that with the 77 percent who went to university, and you get a sizable market of well-educated (and probably well-off) parents online.
It’s also worth noting that India’s overall internet penetration is only around 12 percent of its total population, but that number is expected to triple from 125 million to 330 million by 2016 [1].
また、インド全体のインターネット普及率が、総人口の12%前後だというのも注目に値する。しかしこの数値は2016年 [1]までに、1億2500万から3倍の3億3000万になると予想されている。
また、あまり意味はないが、インド全体のインターネット普及率は、全人口のたった12パーセントほどであるが、その数は、1億2400万人から2016年には3倍の3億3300万人になりそうだ。 [1].
