October search engine numbers: Google, Bing up; Yahoo, Ask, AOL down

General

Analytics company ComScore has released its October search engine market share numbers and… instead of making you fire up your search-site of choice and finding the information yourself, we thought we would just put it right there for you. October’s search numbers are as follows: Google 66.3%, up from 66.1% in September; Bing 11.5%, up from 11.2% in September; Yahoo 16.5%, down from 16.7% the month prior; Ask.com 3.6% down 0.1% from the previous month; and AOL 2.1%, down from 2.3%. We are curious to see how/if the recent release of Windows Phone will help Bing’s search numbers. We’ll find out next month.

        Not DROID is ANDROID

        Hey brother! Don’t pay attention to these guys that don’t know the true name of our OS, it’s DROID!!!!! Google has let other people call it Android but us Goofans KNOW that it’s DROID! Love you brother! Keep em coming!

        Droid is the red headed step child of all the top Android devices. The Nexus 1 that came out way before the all the Droid phones, is still kicking their asses. Even the laggy Galaxy S phones beat the Droid. An overclocked Mytouch Slide can beat the Droid. So the Droid is far from being a flagship Android device.

        At least you use Android though so I can’t bash you for that and feel bad for having to correct you on the Droid/Android mistake.

      Google > God! They do no evil… That’s why I give them all my personal information. I’m like “why hide it from them, I mean, they are God, right? so they know it anyway” It’s my hope that Google gets rid of EVERY OTHER technology company in the world and that way we don’t have to worry. Especially Apple. That’s the main reason for us (Goofans aka Apple Haters) being! Hating Apple. But, what will we do when finally Google drives Apple out of business completely? Most of our days are spent HATING Apple and making fun of their fans! Geeze, what will we do? Ah, we will think of something! I know! We will HATE on the memory of Apple. That can’t go, right?

        You are definitely an Apple fangirl. Get the hell out of here, this blog’s for Goofans ONLY!

        By the way, the answer to your avatar is Eric Schmidt! That’s who Jesus would call. Because they are equals in the eyes of God. Eric Schmidt is the Jesus of our time and he will open the doors to heaven for us. Opposite of S Jobs who’s the incarnation of the devil!

    Tha’ts 28% combined being served by Bing, not too shabby…but I don’t know if/how the Yahoo traffic translates into profits for Microsoft.

  • sirpaul

    I have never in my entire life seen anyone use AOL search. Never. Not even in 2000. How are they getting 2%????

    Google def takes the win on search engines…

    • Goofan (aka Apple Hater)

      Google takes the win on EVERYTHING! They don’t/won’t EVER lose! Anything you deem a loss by Google, eg Wave, is all a facade! They do it as a defense mechanism in their war with the devil, S Jobs.
