Google Searches per Day at 304 Million in June 2009

Wednesday, August 5th, 2009

The stats for search engine ranking from comScore came out a couple of weeks ago, and Google has yet again shown its strength as number one.

Although overall search queries were down across the board, Google achieved an average of 304,500,000 searches per day in June of 2009 and kept a 65 percent stranglehold on the U.S. market.

Microsoft search sites gained about 0.4 percent (mostly from Yahoo) from May, and averaged 40 million searches per day. The gain is probably attributable to Microsoft’s new search engine Bing going live on June 1.

Nevertheless, it’s not surprising to see that Bing hasn’t made too much of an impact thus far on Google’s U.S. (or global) market share.

Google Searches Per Day Reach 299 Million in May 2009

Friday, June 26th, 2009

The statistic counter company comScore released the U.S. search engine rankings for May 2009 last week, and Google continued to reign supreme.

comScore estimates that in the United States alone, some 14.3 billion core searches were conducted, with Google holding 65 percent of those.

That works out to 9.295 billion searches on Google for the month of May and 299.83 million Google searches per day in May 2009. That’s an incredible number!

Of course, these numbers are before Microsoft’s Bing arrived on the scene, so it’ll be interesting to see the numbers for the month of June when they come out. I suspect there might be a slip dip for the month, but thus far Bing hasn’t made much of an impact on the overall Google and Yahoo’s market share.

Google Searches Per Day Reaches 293 Million in March 2009

Wednesday, April 15th, 2009

Google increased its overall lead in the search engine industry, while Microsoft’s Live Search grabbed a bit more market share during March. Yahoo, Ask.com and AOL all saw slight declines.

The results from comScore mean that Google now has its largest lead in the industry ever. Of the 14.3 billion U.S. searches performed in March, Google held 63.7 percent of those. That averages out more than 293.8 million searches per day!

Yahoo continued to hold firmly to its second place in the standings with 20.5 percent of the market share. MSN Live Search has 8.3 percent of the market while Ask.com has 3.8 percent and AOL holds 3.7 percent.

Reuters first reported the story, and the original is available here.

UPDATE: We have more recent numbers for Google’s and Bing’s number of searches.
