Ben Charny of MarketWatch reports that Google’s blog search engine has climbed to the top of the category rankings.
According to Hitwise data, Google Blog Search’s market share jumped to a market-leading 25% recorded last week, leapfrogging Technorati, which had been the leading blog search engine.
Yahoo’s share of the U.S. search engine market continued to further dwindle in April, continuing a downward slide that began eight months ago in September, according to comScore – though Experian Hitwise paints a somewhat different picture.
We’re seeing one-word search queries’ share of total search activity growing fast. Is this due to mobile search, Google Instant, or something else? Let’s see if we can break down this trend and isolate the behavior for what it really is.
The latest comScore search engine rankings for October largely tell the same old story, with Google’s continued dominance. However, Bing-powered search continued trending down, falling to 26.1 percent, from a high of 27.1 percent in August.
