Search Engine Reach and Ratings
Saturday, June 21st, 2008In 2004 the search engines were ranked according to popularity and usage. the study polled 225,000 individuals in 26 countries. The users had real-time metrics installed on their computers that tracked the web sites that they visited. What was tracked were unique visits to the various search engines, not search activity. This poll was conducted over the period of 1 month.
The top 5 search engines used were:
* Google 39.4%
* Yahoo 30.4%
* MSN 29.6%
* AOL 15.5%
* Ask Jeeves 8.5%
In this coming year it will be interesting to see if MSN (Microsoft) will gain any ground on the top 2 Google and Yahoo. MSN is scheduled to launch their new search engine in the beginning of the year.
In the tests that we have conducted on MSN we have found their results to be more accurate than Google’s in a lot of cases. Let the search wars begin!
