Search Usage and Market Share

Search: Google rules, Europeans do it more by Tom Krazit, CNet (Aug 31)

Google definitely rules -- Comscore figures show that Google carries 67.5% of search use - and search itself is up 41% over July 2008.

Yahoo sites were a distant second with 7.8% of share.

"ComScore came out with worldwide search market share numbers Monday, which revealed that Internet searches increased by 41 percent to 113 billion in just the month of July. Slightly more than two-thirds of all those searches were done with Google, which also saw the number of searches done with through engine increase 58 percent compared with last year."
