Mobile-Only Audiences For Top Online Sites, February 2013-January 2014 [CHART]

Mobile-only visitor counts to leading publishers are growing rapidly, belying the notion that consumers are accessing content from both desktops and mobiles, says comScore in a release of new data. In fact, for each of the top 10 US properties by mobile-only audience, that audience accounts for at least 20% of the publisher’s total digital population.
