NetRatings: Google Tops 50 Percent Mark In US Web Searches
New stats
(PDF) out from NetRatings show Google now handles half the web searches in the
United States:
Search Engine | April 2005 | April 2006 |
47% | 50% | |
Yahoo | 22% | 22% |
MSN | 12% | 11% |
Need a longer view? See our
NetRatings
page for stats over time. I’ll be getting the missing months posted soon,
promise. I’m also planning a side-by-side against comScore figures. The latest
of those released
earlier this week show Google with a smaller chunk of the search pie but still
higher than others. Here’s a fast side-by-side:
April 2006 | comScore | NetRatings |
43% | 50% | |
Yahoo | 28% | 22% |
MSN | 13% | 11% |
Historical comScore figures are on our
comScore page,
fresh through March 2006.
