hi, i was just wondering if anyone new which search engine is used more, yahoo or google. they both have page rank 10 but i dont no for sure
Google Page rank is not an indication of use but perceived popularity Google is used more for search but Yahoo (the network) gets more traffic overall
here's a good article from hitwise http://weblogs.hitwise.com/bill-tancer/2006/08/us_july_search_volume_numbers.html Google dominates the Big three with a 60% search volume.
You can try alexa.com to find out more about their traffic... Reach for Yahoo.com: Percent of Internet users who visit this site Yesterday - 26.5% Reach for Google.com: Percent of Internet users who visit this site Yesterday - 23.6%
I don't think alexa is a good basis for this because data it uses is just from people that just have their tool bar installed. I think google receives more searches.
I would choose google over yahoo. But I cause it depends on which seo will want to rank my site higher.
I agree with the other poster. That data is derived from those who use Alexla toolbar to hit those search engines. Google presently receives more traffic than Yahoo even thought about. I believe Google has about 40% to 50% of the online traffic.
Careful how you phrase that, Google doesn't have anywhere near 40-50% of online traffic. They have a 60% share of Searches. Period. Myspace is huge, Yahoo is bigger in terms of traffic.
Whatever search engine serves for your purposes is fine. Google used to be the most accurate but since long ago it returns tons of junk results, mostly Adsense farms. Yahoo is a litle bit annoying with its Portal format. Live.com powered by Microsoft is fast but not always return what you want. Ask.com is becoming quickly a best option for searching, even though still growing up
in my opinion google owns about 70% and yahoo about 15% then come msn with 5% Thats why i geting in recent months. from the stats of about 400 domains some SEO some not.
