Google still gaining on search share

Cory Bergman December 11th, 2006

Google is unstoppable. The company now commands a record 65.8 percent of all U.S. searches, according to Compete. Meanwhile, Yahoo has slipped a few points to 21 percent. But the biggest surprise for me is that Ask has caught to up MSN in share, 4.8 to 4.9 percent respectively. Ask has been spending aggressively on marketing over the last year. Here’s the graph with more details.

    I was just running through the monthly logfiles on three different sites, and I was amazed at how dominant Google was in driving organic traffic to all three. Part of that likely has to do with the SEO for all three sites being targeted at Google, but even so, the ratio of Google-delivered traffic to all other search engines wildly favors Google. I’ve also noticed the same trend with regard to Ask. It’s slowly moving past MSN.
