Statistics Are Often Misleading

You cannot - as a web developer - rely only on statistics. Statistics can often be misleading.

Global averages may not always be relevant to your web site. Different sites attract different audiences. Some web sites attract professional developers using professional hardware, while other sites attract hobbyists using old low spec computers.

Also be aware that  many statistics may have an incomplete or faulty browser detection. It is quite common by many web-stats report programs, not to detect the newest browsers.

(The statistics above are extracted from W3Schools' log-files, but we are also monitoring other sources around the Internet to assure the quality of these figures).

My god, this is the most irritatting issue for me when making a web page.

I downloaded 5 web browsers and tested my pages, thanks god all gave almost the same results. but still there are different operating systems with different browsers :)

The truth is that I don't follow clean HTML at all, hell I still use tables instead of divs and full CSS, for me the most important thing is page compatibility with all browsers and since my page doesn't mess up in different browsers then my HTML is clean :)
