How many internet users in Indonesia? According to market research institute e-Marketer, netter population of the country reached 83.7 million people in 2014.
The number that applies to every person who access the internet at least once every month put Indonesia in the 6th largest in the world in terms of the number of internet users.
In 2017, eMarketer estimates netter Indonesia will reach 112 million people, beating Japan in the fifth rank of the growing number of Internet users more slowly.
Overall, the number of internet users worldwide is projected to reach 3 billion people by 2015. Three years later, by 2018, an estimated 3.6 billion people on Earth will access the internet at least once every month.
"Mobile phones and affordable mobile broadband connections are driving the growth of Internet access in countries that can not rely on fixed line, either because of infrastructure or cost issues," said MonMarket Peart senior analyst eMarketer.
Peart said that developing countries such as Indonesia and India still have room for the growing number of internet users whose size can reach double digits every year.
Above Indonesia, for now the top five countries of internet users in the world are sequentially occupied by China, the United States, India, Brazil, and Japan.
The number of Internet users in China is currently 643 million, more than double the netter population in the United States by 252 million.
