- 7. pingdom.com Some of the key findings • UTC +8 is the time zone with the most Internet users, and with an Internet penetration of only 41% it will probably grow in the years to come. • The largest contributor worldwide is of course China with 538 million Internet Users. • The 68% Internet penetration rate of UTC +9 may seem high, but can be explained by the large populations and high Internet penetration rates of Japan and South Korea. • Internet penetration of UTC +1 is very uneven distributed with low numbers like 5% in Cameroon and high, for example 92% in Norway. • Nigeria, with an Internet penetration of 30%, is the third largest contributor in UTC +1 with 48 millions Internet users. Only France (52 millions) and Germany (67 millions) have more Internet users in that time zone.
