The search engine market

[jackie]

Does anyone know how much of the market each search engine has?

Presumably Google is about 95%, how much do the other big guys have?

Google is definitly the largest...I dont have exact figures...but Google is definily the largest...probably 40 to 50% and then Yahoo probably 20 to 30% and then MS, probably about 10 to 20% and everything else is less than 10%. Also, note that each website will have different results...because you might have better ranking in Yahoo and MSN and your site might get more traffic from those engines...or vise versa...if you have good ranking in Google, but not on others then you might get 95% traggic from Google.

Definitely Google will always be on top in terms of search engines..

You have a point there leftybogs, but as we can see most of webmasters and searchers depend on Google.. Anyway, the competition is not over.. Yes we can say that as for today Google dominate and remain on top but how about tomorrow?
