The Taiwan Internet Report aims to portray the development, application management, and overview of Internet access in Taiwan. It describes the overall Internet usage diagrams and user profiles in Taiwan and seeks to understand online trends and future development. The survey methodology combines both quantitative and qualitative methods including Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing (CATI) and document analysis; this aims to improve the perspective of the survey, increase the range of references and expand the applications for the survey. The Report seeks to describe the overall situation of the Internet in Taiwan; it does so by expanding from Taiwan's Internet infrastructure to application levels, referencing network logical layers data such as domain names and IP/ASN allocation status and other objective environmental analyses, and collecting and comparing contents of secondary sources from other countries.

The estimated number of Internet users aged 12 and above reached 17.38 million people in 2018, and the estimated number of Internet users in the country has reached 18.66 million. The overall Internet access rate has reached 79.2%. The mobile Internet access rate has increased each year and exceeded 70% for the first time in 2018, while the wireless Internet access rate dropped by 15%. In terms of online services and applications, the usage rate of content media and social media are the highest for Internet users and both have exceeded 80% while the use of E-commerce has reached 60%. These are markets with more active online applications and growth.
