Google search–Back with a “Bang”

After some speculations over the last few about whether new search engine launches like Bing will have any affect on the search engine market share of Google, the answer is out—Google is gaining search engine market share again. China’s Baidu is a new entrant in the list and ranks at number 3 with a 7% share. Those who (pleasantly) fear that Google will become a monopoly in search market can breath easy, because that is what it looks like.

Online search market has sprung up 41% since last year with more than 113 billion searches conducted in July. The results show that each person who has access to the Internet, on an average conducted 103.3 searches in a month.

Bing is unable to increase its market share in spite of billions of dollars spent on its marketing. Microsoft has also launched Bing Visual search, which is a more interactive search in which you can search for something and get images for the same. But it remains to be same if it can compete with Google search + Google image search combination.

In the latest release, a Forbes study says that the best way to generate conversions is through SEO. No wonder, when people are using Google, it makes sense to optimize the websites for the same. Don’t you dare CTRL T!!
