Actual Browser Sizes (final) - Baekdal.com

Wed, 20 Feb 2008 14:50:06 -0000

This is a creative example of quantitative user research. According to the findings from this article the "above the fold" size that will apply to the most people browsing is 776px wide by 424px high. This takes into account the browser chrome and surfing w/o being maximized.

I think this study should be performed regularly, every couple of years perhaps to follow display size changes.

Comments:

The final section "What size do I need to support?" has the findings summary, but the entire article is a very worthwhile read. posted by pabranch

Highlights and Sticky Notes:

in order to support 95% of your visitors, you need to design for a maximum size of 776x424px

Comments:

Another thing to consider is that many Windows users have the Office suite or at least MS Word which comes with many fonts preslected for installation. Also look at the fonts used by OpenOffice and other popular opensource editors.

These additional fonts are also good potential candidates for your font-family!
