Google Posts Another Double Digit Increase
Search engine giant Google posted another double digit increase in search queries according to Nielsen/NetRatings. The Nielsen survey compared search engine queries from June through October 2005 with the same period last year. Google searches were up 21 percent in that period. The total number of searches in October exceeded 5.1 billion.
The average increase for all major search engines was 15 percent across the same period. Though a small percentage of total search queries, the highest rate of growth came from Ask Jeeves which grew at a rate of 77 percent over last year.
Google was the source of 47.7 percent of all searches, Yahoo second at 21.8 percent, and MSN came in third at 11.3 percent.
