Don't think their numbers are right.

I manage 3 different sites with AAAA and A records.

site 1: tech site: 12% of the traffic is via IPv6

site 2: mixed/funny site: 7% is IPv6

site 3: company site: 9% is IPv6

I asked around a few friends and all of them with IPv6-enabled sites have around 5-15% of their traffic via IPv6.

Even Google sees 14%:

Can't believe this 50% number.

The numbers are right. If you want to compare to your own data you need to filter for users from the big four US mobile providers like mentioned in the post.

Ah, good point. Thanks for the info.

Those are world-wide numbers. Google reports 30% for the US: https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html#tab=per-....

Thanks, mis-read it.

Yes, it's quite different in different countries.

My web server gets only 3,9% IPv6 traffic (based on counting unique IPs). Quite OK given that none of the major ISPs in my country offer IPv6 (neither on broadband or on mobile). Even for businesses it can be hard to get native IPv6 here.
