Windows Internet Explorer 9


As the only browser designed specifically for the Windows operating system, Windows Internet Explorer 9 enables you to provide your customers the best possible web experience on Windows 7 PCs. Pinning websites to the Windows 7 taskbar helps increase site traffic and allows users to better navigate, control, and interact with online content. Also, support for modern web standards like HTML5 means that you can create more engaging websites and applications.

Realize the full potential of the web with Internet Explorer 9.

Why Build Pinned Sites?
Microsoft research shows that 87 percent of Windows users launch their favorite installed applications from the Windows 7 Taskbar. So, enhancing your site with the pinning capability enables users to access it with one click, in exactly the same way they access their favorite apps. But a pinned site is more than just a convenient shortcut. It’s also a dynamic tool that can extend your customers’ brand to the desktop and help take their sales and marketing efforts to a new level. And you can get measurable results with minimal development effort. Some companies that already use pinning for their sites report dramatic increases in customer engagement—as much as 200 percent.
Whether you want to optimize the experience for your site or for those of your customers, you can use the pinned sites feature to:
  • Create a dynamic Jump List that takes users directly to tailored site content.
  • Use taskbar notifications that alert users to new or updated site content.
  • Integrate the icon and primary colors of the pinned site into the browser frame and navigational controls.
  • Create thumbnail preview controls that enable users to manage the site from outside the browser.
