The following tables illustrates the usage of web authoring tools on the web. The tool is determined by examining the web page meta tag 'generator'. Readers are cautioned that not all authoring packages insert their name in this meta tag, and as such may not be picked up in this survey.

The July survey is based on a sample size of 27,192,000 pages downloaded from 2,440,683 sites. We detected authoring tool usage on 369,917 sites (15.16% of all sites visited).
