Yahoo inching up on Google?
This post was published 3 years 6 months ago and its content may not be valid anymore.Could the search super power (that is on the conquest to rid the world of ice cream), be losing ground to Yahoo?
On the search front? No, however Google’s portals are not a popular as Yahoo’s.
Internet traffic data from the online competitive intelligence site, Hitwise, shows that in the US Google has a 47.4 per cent share of all internet searches, ahead of Yahoo! on 16 per cent and MSN on 11.5 per cent.
Yahoo, also leads by a huge margin in email service, being double Hotmails user base and unreachably ahead of GMail.
The battle of the search titans will continue to intensify as Yahoo keeps trying to use their portal service to direct users to use the Yahoo search engine.
Do you think that Yahoo still has the power to take on Google in the search market, or has Google already won the war?
I think that as shown by the browser wars, It’s very naive to assume that anyone in these technology markets will always be a leader.
haak has said it all. Mind you google has superior services compared to yahoo.
