Bing is eating Google’s share of search engine traffic.

Search engine rankings are never really all that surprising. Google is always first, Yahoo! is always second and Bing comes in third every month, without fail. Sometimes Yahoo! or Bing will rise or fall a little bit and one will benefit from the other’s loss, however it’s never a massive drop.

Based on ComScore (via CNet), Google’s dominant share of the search market slipped by 0.3 percentage points to 65.4 percent of all searches conducted in the U.S. Because of this, Bing increased by 0.6 percentage points to 11.3 percent of all searches. Yahoo! lost another 0.3 percent, dropping to 17 percent of all searches.

Microsoft Bing has experienced almost consistent growth since it launched last May, rising from 8.4 percent in June to its current 11.3 percent.

I like Bing, and probably MS does deserve a share of the search market with this product.

I like everything that reduces the monopoly of Google, so more power to Bing

A lot of complaints are made though by webmasters who often find Bing very slow to index new sites. With Google and Yahoo a new site can appaer in the listings within a couple of weeks. With Bing it often takes many months.

That's a problem indeed, I still can't find a site I created 2 months ago in Bing
