Latest search engine rankings

No surprise here, Google is still number one but I must say they are slowly dropping but are still very dominate. I have often said that I do not just submit for Google but other search engines as well and this shows you there are others to think about.
A listing from AXANDRA:
"Google Sites led the U.S. explicit core search market in December with 66.7 percent market share, followed by Microsoft Sites with 16.3 percent (up 0.1 percentage points) and Yahoo! Sites with 12.2 percent (up 0.1 percentage points). Ask Network accounted for 3 percent of explicit core searches, followed by AOL, Inc. with 1.8 percent (up 0.1 percentage points). [...]
More than 17.6 billion explicit core searches were conducted in December (up 4 percent), with Google Sites ranking first with 11.8 billion (up 4 percent). Microsoft Sites ranked second with 2.9 billion searches (up 5 percent), followed by Yahoo! Sites with 2.2 billion (up 5 percent), Ask Network with 534 million (up 5 percent) and AOL, Inc. with 310 million (up 4 percent)."
When we help a customer, we submit to them all or as many as we can because believe it or not, there are new search engines being released almost every day.

Until next time!
