percentage of traffic from different search engines

[wizardofx]

I have just done my analysis for May, and think it would be interesting to compare notes. My site is very technical and
appeals to engineers, I have about 230 pages, and 65000 visitors per month. I wonder if the technical nature skews my
results toward Google.

Only counting the search engines listed:

Google 84%
Yahoo 7.7%
MSN 5.6 %
AOL 0.6%
Netscape 1.3%
Altavista 0.6%
alltheweb 0.1%

In this I have included all search engines with"google" in the name, etc.

How do your results compare?

Best regards

My big e-commerce site shows

Google 45%
Yahoo 23.5%
MSN 22.8%
Other 8.7%

I would say this site appeals to "good ole boys".

Need more non-google traffic! Working on it...

My results are eerily similar to Smyrl's, almost exactly the same.

It has been since June since I posted these,

for electrical engineersL

Google 84%
Yahoo 7.7%
MSN 5.6 %
AOL 0.6%
Netscape 1.3%
Altavista 0.6%
alltheweb 0.1%

December 2004

Google 82.8%
Yahoo 9.2% (this increase is a surprise)
MSN 5.5%
AOL 1.2%
Netscape 0.7%
Altavista 0.5%
Alltheweb 0.04%
Overture 0.1% (and I am advertising on Overture a bit)
Ask 0.3%

It looks like Yahoo has taken a bit of Google traffic.

Since I have a calculator I thought I would put this
in perspective. It looks like the web developers you
are targeting are much more spread out than the
EEs I am targeting.

The traffic stats are quite interesting

for dec 2004
Yahoo 38%
msn 31%
G 8%

I rank in the top 3 for my main k-words in Y and Msn. in the 30 range for G last month. Have moved up into the 20 recently and have seen a small increase in g since.

Does anyone rank the same in g and Y for a particular Keyword? It would be intresting to compare heads up on a keyword.
