Browser? I just click the Internet

Did you know that there is more than one way to view the internet?

The uninitiated will think that browser choice begins and ends with Microsoft Internet Explorer - is that big blue 'e' on your desktop the only way for you to see the net?

There is more choice than you think. In fact there are numerous browsers now available with each laying claim to be the best. Comparisons and evaluations of different web browsers is a rather big theme on the Internet and we will not go into it in detail here.

We believe that it is your own experience and feel of the browser that matters the most. Each person is unique and able to decide which web browser fits his or her needs the best. We think that most people would appreciate a faster, safer and more versatile web tool which can handle the ever increasing complexity and demands of Internet communication.

Of the big five browsers, Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, Opera and Google Chrome... Chrome appears to be the fastest browser for Windows. Firefox is much faster than Internet Explorer and Firefox could be a better choice when it comes to standards, support, features and safety. But, Firefox is still not as speedy as Chrome or Opera, which both offer top-notch standards support and features. Chrome and Opera, like Firefox, can claim to be the safest web browsers.

Greater choice for users means a harder time for developers like us. Each of the browsers behave slightly differently. At emediates we take this issue very seriously and aim to have our clients websites looking right for over 80% of web users. So, whether your favourite is Firefox or Chrome, Opera or Safari, or Internet Explorer, chances are your clients might be using something different.

If you want your clients to see your website in it's best possible light - then give us a call and ask for a free browser check today.
