Apple Google

The Nielsen Company, one of the global leaders in consumer market research and trend analysis, has released its Nielsen Tops of 2012 report, which looks at the top Web and mobile companies between January and October of 2012.



On all fronts, Google was able to maintain its position at the top of the mountain.

Starting with Smartphone market share, Android continued to hold more than half the pie, despite Apple's all-time-high sales share for the three month period ending on November 25.

Google's portal is the number one U.S. Web brand of 2012, with 172.6 million unique visitors per month.

For online video, YouTube got some 132.4 million unique monthly visitors, more than three times Yahoo's video portal in second place.

In the app realm, Google understandably takes four of the top five spots, which is nothing remarkable as Google preloads those apps on most of the Android devices.

For iOS it’s the infamous Maps app which takes up the first spot, although likely not many figures represent their recent fiasco as the data is only until October.
