Just wondering where all this data came from. Are they for real?

@ Julian,

Thanks for the response.

For table 7.32, the question is “Which search engine do netizens mainly use?” And yes, the data in the table shows that 84% mainly use Yahoo, 67% mainly use Google, and 27% mainly use Baidu, and so on. However, that data is for the Macau Internet market only (i.e. it only includes netizens in Macau, nowhere else). In addition to the mainland China market (pg. 1 – 69), this edition of the CNNIC report includes separate data on the Macau (from pg. 70) and Hong Kong (from pg. 46) Internet markets.

For graph 7.28, that appears to be the same data as in table 7.32, just represented in a bar-graph format, but I think there is a mistake with the “other” (i.e. “其他”) data, it should be 15% not 10%.

I hope that clears things up.

Adam,
What’s the deal with table 7.32 and graph 7.28? Are those saying that Google is preferred (67%) to Baidu (27%)? pgs 94 and 5.

Thanks,

Julian

This is awesome data, thanks! I assume the missing Age demographics is 20-29 at 31.5%?

If you use those figures to calculate the real growth of internet access in different groups, the number of under-10s online is down 29% compared to last year, but 10-19 year olds are up 81%. I wonder why that is.

Hi Adam
Thanks for the translation. All that information does beg the question though: who is responsible for the research and how thorough (ie. trustworthy) is it?
