February 2009 Search Engine Market Share | Net Applications
Google continues with a three month decline, losing just under two points, though it is the only engine up from this time last year. Yahoo also continues to slide while MSN is on a four month increase. Ask has been steadily decreasing since April of ’08 and AOL hasn’t fared much better.

Google dropped down to August 08 levels with Yahoo getting it’s best gains May of 08. Of course, Yahoo is still 1/3 of Google’s traffic. Sigh.

I’m a Google Convert But I Still Want to See Competition in Search
Over the last few months I’ve become a convert to Google. I’ve always used Google as my primary search engine but only recently have I started using a few other Google products such as Gmail, calendar and documents. I’m a fan.
But when it comes to search, I’m fed up with Google’s dominance. We could use a little competition in search.
Of course, it’s really not Google’s fault that they run between 50-70% market share, depending on who you ask. It’s really the fault of all of us searchers. We use Google because we like the results. We don’t use Yahoo or MSN because for whatever reason we feel the results are inferior.

Christmas with the Search Engines
Since movies can wait 10 or 20 years to produce a sequel, I thought that it wouldn’t be so out of sorts writing a sequel to a post from 2002. Back then, Google was the rising star, there was a lot more competition in search and GoTo dominated the PPC market. Only a few things have changed since then.
Six years ago I wrote a post about what I wanted from Christmas from the search engines. I thought it would be a good time to revisit what I asked for back then, whether it happened or not, whether I really wanted it (20/20 hind site) and perhaps ask for a few new things.
