    We all cry when Google makes a move and hurts our online tresures. Yet, we still continue using it every day. Why? Is it any better than yahoo or bing?
    So I wonder. Why do you still use google? .

    Because it's the most used search engine. We don't just cry for ourselves that our rankings lowered, but because that also means the rankings for our potential visitors have decreased ;)

    Exactly. You can't even compare Google to Yahoo/Bing. Even combined, Bingahoo still can't even come close.

    In other words, Google is where the money is, regardless of screwing you or not.

    Same opinion as Tamcake, I really can't see a future with using another main search engine, it is too worldwide popular too be improved by a concurrent

    We will continue using Google for a long time due to its vast databases and user friendliness.
    The only way Google would rank as the second best search engine would be if someone nuked their servers with napalm.

    Google hasn't hurt my online business - in fact, it has made it bigger.

    Google isn't hurting no one, not intentionally, at least. I'd say that whether you'll benefit or suffer from mighty G solely depends on your related skills and knowledge.

    I earn thru them, so even if they sometimes hurt. i need to adjust and optimize again and again to earn from them. if i can earn from bing, i'd probably use them

    Google's mission is to demote low quality content. If your content is high quality, you should be celebrating.
