New research from
Bango reveals that the USA has knocked the UK off the top slot for mobile phone based website browsing with 29% of the worldwide traffic compared to 20% in the UK:
"With 245 million subscribers, it was only a matter of time before the US became the number 1 country in the world for mobile web browsing," said Anil Malhotra, SVP of Marketing at Bango.
The publicity behind the Apple iPhone, and other new Smartphone's, has encouraged more people to browse the mobile web in countries such as the US and UK. But this increase in mobile browsing has taken businesses by surprise as many still don't have mobile websites.
