Opera Mini - 2 million users, 4 million daily page loads

Today we announced that Opera Mini has attracted 2 million users. That's great, and it is only the beginning. However, what is really intriguing about the statistics is how much they actually use the browser. If all 2 million surfed every day, they would browse two pages per person per day. But as with any service, far from everybody is using it every day. The most avid users browse up to 30 pages per day, a large chunk average around 10 and, of course, some only browse now and then or not at all.

We've been saying how operators can boost their Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) by enabling their entire customer base to browse the Web, and these numbers really back that up. Every day, between 38 and 76 Gigabytes of traffic run through our servers.

It's good for all: End-users get to surf the real Web on their phones, faster and cheaper because of Mini's compression; Operators get all this data traffic from users that would normally not be surfing if it hadn't been for Mini; Content providers reach the mass market with their existing sites and services.

T-Mobile has understood this, and signed with us to pre-install Opera Mini on their high-volume feature phones in their Web'n'Walk offering. Debitel understood this and signed to use Opera's entire range of mobile solutions on selected handsets. And a wide range of content sites and Web services have understood this and are signing up as Opera Mini distributors.

It's only been two months since the global launch of Opera Mini, and we've had some really good wins already. Stay tuned!
