Primavera studies

Published . Updated .

Each study counts the businesses listed on Google Maps in Primavera’s database, then reads their websites. The figures are dated, the method is on the page, and the data can be downloaded and reused under the CC BY 4.0 license. The latest: 29.2% of US business websites run on WordPress, and 8.8% carry a Meta pixel or Facebook plugin.

Source: Primavera’s database of Google Maps listings and the websites they link to. Each study gives its method, its dates and its limits.

How these studies are made

  • Each figure is counted in Primavera’s database, not estimated: the businesses listed on Google Maps, and the websites they link to, read again every day.
  • Each study says what it counts, on which date, and what its figures don’t say.
  • The data is published as CSV files under the CC BY 4.0 license: free to reuse with a credit to Primavera and a link to the study. Counts and shares only, never a business’s contact details.
