According to research from Parks Associates, 35% of the U.S. households that switched broadband providers last year did so to get a faster Internet connection. Comparatively, only 18% switched because a competing provider offered a comparable speed for a lower price.
“Overall, faster broadband won out over price by and large,” Brett Sappington, Parks Associates’ director of research, tells Marketing Daily. “Consumers are continually looking to upgrade their broadband, which is why we’re seeing gigabit speeds even though they have no real use for it.”
