August 3, 2009 · by Aleksander Aas

Hitslink just updated their numbers to include weight by country! From August first the stats will reflect the actual marketshare in regards to the population and Internet availability in the countries listed. This is super news for Opera and Opera fans!

Opera will rise significantly due to this. In Hitslink's own words:

This reflects the significant share they [Opera] have in Eastern Europe and Asia.

The search engine Baidu also gets a well earned bump in the stats.
