14 DAY TRIAL // Opera Mini, one of the most popular mobile browsers in the world, has just reached an important milestone, as it passed the one billion pages served per day mark. According to the company, this achievement translates into a number of over 11,500 pages being compressed and delivered to mobile phone users around the world each and every second.
“Opera joins the exclusive one billion served per day club. According to Opera Software statistics, Opera Mini users viewed more than one billion pages on July 25, 2010. Every second, Opera Mini servers compressed more than 11,500 pages before sending that content to phones around the world,” the company announced.
The Norwegian software company also announced that the mobile browser has enjoyed one of the most impressive page view growth in recent years. For comparison, Opera Mini served 100 million pages per day back in June 2008, while the average page views back in June 2010 was of 910 million pages every day. Opera notes that the increase was of around 161 percent when compared to June 2009.

Every day more people around the world choose Opera Mini and view more pages through this browser,” said Jon von Tetzchner, co-founder, Opera Software. “Crossing one billion pages views in a day is further proof that people desire the best Internet experience, no matter where they live or what device they use.”
