What percentage of surfers are still on dial-up?

I'm looking for numbers regarding the amount of surfers still using dial-up. Mainly Americans, Canadians, Europeans... anyone that can successfully join a paysite.

Where can I get numbers like this?

Here... not... lol
To my knowledge, US/CAN it's around 20%
Europeans.... Well... Quite vage... cannot specify.
Even europeans have old russian shit. Some even top niche stuff!
Euro market quite difficult. But for sure... LOTS more euro surfers on dial up. 100% sure
Like my personal estimate? 60-70% europeans on dial-fuck.

ya i think that's about right.. but i think anywhere from 50 - 75% still have the modem plugged into the wall so they could still dial up to a dialer..

I'm not interested for dialer purposes. I'm looking for people with slow connections.

Europe... Eastern, even some western europe countries are still mostly on dial-up and slow DSL. Freaking thought btw.

More than you would think. It's dandy that we have a T-1 at the office but I dial up from home........no, I'm not a porn surfer, but I'm your typical Internet Surfer.

All my machines are on dial up, except for 2 of them on my "broadband" satellite which is total crap too.

I have never even seen a cable modem or DSL or any type of high speed connection There's none available in my area and I have heard a lot of people that have that problem. If only 20% of people in the US still used dial up, AOL would nearly be out of business, considering AOL for broadband isn't available everywhere either.

http://www.bandwidthplace.com might have some statistics or input on the percentage.

Dial up users are your target audience. They are the ones that are new to the internet and havent surfed around thousands of free porn sites. (Why you ask? Because it would take years) They probably havent visited many porn sites and dont have time for movies.

What he said... so I don't like flash overused, nothing but well designed, simple yet elegant sites. Even in the UK it takes ages in big town to switch to dsl which is crap also.
