When the AMO Statistics Dashboard was first released<\/a>, it contained views for all of the data available from add-on update pings at the time. With the release of Firefox 3 in mid-2008, however, a locale parameter was added to indicate the user’s browser locale.<\/p>\n

We recently added support for this to our stats dashboard, so you’ll now be able to see the breakdown of locale usage for each add-on by selecting “Locales” from the stats dashboard menu.<\/p>\n

The top 25 locales for all add-ons hosted on AMO are listed below, along with the top locales for Firefox proper. This comparison shows which locales are disproportionately interested in add-ons, both positively and negatively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

We’ll be posting additional statistics based on locale data in the future, as it’s very interesting to see how the popularity of specific add-ons can change drastically between locales.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
