Press Kit

Brand Name

One of the things we most often see in the media is the misspelling of 'GlobalWebIndex'. Any adherence to the below rules would be much appreciated on our side!

"GlobalWebIndex", without spaces and the "G", "W" and "I" capitalized. For example, "Recent data from internet market research firm GlobalWebIndex shows that active usage for Snapchat is rallying among teens."

"Global Web Index", with spaces. For example, "Recent data from internet market research firm Global Web Index shows that active usage for Snapchat is rallying among teens."

"Globalwebindex", without spaces but also without the "G", "W" and "I" capitalized. For example, "Recent data from internet market research firm Globalwebindex shows that active usage for Snapchat is rallying among teens."

"global web index". Not even close. You get the idea!

Research & Methodology

Logos & Assets

There are two GlobalWebIndex logos - the horizontal long logo and the stacked vertical logo - and each comes in a version for light and dark backgrounds. Links to each can be found below, in various file formats.

Please do not distort the images, and keep at least 20px between the outermost edges of each corner!

Citing the Data

Charts & Graphs

When it comes to citing the data in charts, there are only really 3 things to worry about. The data pack, document or analysis tool you are using should give you the info you need. If in doubt, please just drop us a line!

  • Our company name, i.e. "GlobalWebIndex"
  • The date of the research, e.g. "Q2 2014"
  • The base that was used when calculating the numbers.

Please also make sure you clearly label the data point being used, e.g. Active Usage of Snapchat, Teens

Underneath your charts you should therefore have something like: "Source: GlobalWebIndex, Q2 2014 | Base = Global Internet Users.

Articles, Blog Posts and Other Free Text

When quoting our data in articles, posts and other documents within the copy itself, please just use our brand name and make it clear where the data was from (e.g. the report name or data pack in question). Of course, where possible, we appreciate it when you link back to our site at http://globalwebindex.net to give readers an idea of how the may explore the data in more depth.

A rough guide to publishing do's and don'ts!

Please do

  • Use any individual data point that you might find in a report or data pack, as available to be downloaded from the Insight Store
  • Use any publically available GlobalWebIndex data in publications and blogs
  • Support subjective points of view or otherwise substantiate an idea using evidence from the GlobalWebIndex data set
  • Cite GlobalWebIndex in the ways outlined above, to make it clear to the reader where the data is from
  • Create your own charts and graphs from the raw data, to fit in with your branding or house style
  • Provide a link back to a GlobalWebIndex page on this site, where possible

Please don't

  • Publish reports or data packs from the Insight Store IN FULL on your website, or distribute to your reader base
  • Publish more than 5 charts from any given report in one article or post, or otherwise exploit our 'fair use' approach
  • Claim the data to be your own
  • Modify the data in any way to fit your arguments or needs
  • Re-sell any GlobalWebIndex data without prior consent and a commercial agreement with us

Follow these golden rules and we'll get along just fine! Again, if in doubt, please just ask.

Media license criteria

For key partners, we occasionally issue free subscriptions to a GlobalWebIndex plan. This is designed to enable you to rapidly find the supporting data you need, using your own log in.

There are rules of thumb that we think about when assessing these applications:

  • Does the writer regularly contribute to publications with over 1 million unique readers?
  • Has the writer written about GlobalWebIndex previously?
  • Could the writer be classed as an influencer within the advertising and technology industries?
  • Is journalism or blogging the writer's principal source of income?
  • Is the writer impartial, and not employed by a brand, publisher or agency?

If the answer is a resounding "yes!" to most of the above questions, please go ahead and apply for a GlobalWebIndex media subscription using the form to the right.
