Smartphone Sales Continue To Soar

The number of people who have access to the internet on their phone is unbelievable and the number continues to grow. The sale of smartphones increased by 46% from this time last year. It is important when creating a website for your business to remember these statistics. Having a functioning mobile website is almost as important, if not more, than having a working website from a computer standpoint.

More smartphones are being sold worldwide than feature phones. They have taken a plummet of 21% since this time last year. What’s even more surprising is what smartphones are more in demand than others. When it comes to market shares Samsung increased its share to 31% while Apple dropped to14%.  Overall, Samsung is selling more units than Apple by almost 40,000.

Even the use of tablet sales have slowed during the second quarter of 2013.  Smartphones accounted for 51% of mobile phone sales during this time and it doesn’t look to be slowing down anytime soon. It is important now, more than ever to have a mobile website for your business especially since people are spending more and more time on their mobile devices.
