Yep, its true (at least from what Alexa Shows as Daily Reach). Yes, I also found that amazing and I've decided to write an article about it ... please read here Google is Going Down and MSN/LIVE dominates? Can you all (experienced SEO's and webmasters) please post here your Search Engine Traffic Stats from Google, Yahoo, MSN/LIVE as I would like to analyze further this issue as I assume it's really strange as I'm firm believer that Google is the biggest and this data kind'a shocked me. Please post your stats in Percentage - aka 40% Google, 30% Yahoo 30%MSN ... thanks, Cheers to all and please feel free to discuss. Venetsian
Yep, I did blog it ... I just made the link more visible (larger) + Red ... I do think this is very big thing, and somehow I hope its another glitch in Alexa, otherwise Google is really going down and that's not good. We all know that Microsoft is going very heavy with its built in Search for MSN/LIVE and that might be the reason why Google is fading so quickly ... Any comments ?? Cheers, Venetsian
I have always loved MSN. But still google is sending me 3 times more traffic then MSN. Maybe we will now have more threads on MSN seo in future.
The true is that I changed my behaving recently. I started to use Yahoo more, before it was only Google.
MSN is going up looking at that graph but yahoo and google both going down. Alexa however is not the real indicator of traffic and most of the times the results are skewed.
93% of my traffic comes from Yahoo and Google. 6% from other SE's and 1% from MSN. So IMO MSN still is not that great.
Cut the crap up . Alexa is highly inaccurate . Dont you notice that on a long term only google is seen rising while the other sites have reached their max .
from the stats the Live.com is going up .. But I wonder why our sites doesnt recieve sufficient traffic from it .. where go all this traffic ( I mean the Live.com traffic ) ?
Your basing your finding on Alexa? Your going to need more then Alexa to convince even Microsoft there search engine is going up.
Although I would take Alexa's stats with a pinch of salt, I have seen an 8% drop in traffic from Google across my sites, and a similar increase in traffic from Microsoft Search Engines.
