Over a year ago I wrote a blog looking at how the top search engines were doing. I thought it was time for an update. An article on Search Engine Watch, called "May 2011 Search Engine Market Share from comScore, Compete, Hitwise" by Danny Goodwin, (June 19, 2011), gave me the input for that.
Back in April 2010, Experian Hitwise reported that Google had 71.4% of share, Yahoo was at 14.96% and bing was hovering at 9.43%.
Now?
According to comScore, in May of 2011 that looks like: Google is at 65.5%, Yahoo is at 15.9%, and Bing has grown to 14.1%. (You probably aren't asking, but in case you are curious, Ask.com is continuting to linger way, way down in the rankings.)
So, year over year Google has dropped somewhere around 6%-8% in search rankings (depending on the web analytics company's stats you look at). At the same time, Bing is enjoying growth!
