Total U.S. searches dipped again in July, with Google retaining the bulk of the queries.
According to the most recent comScore report, total searches in the US were nearly 13.6 billion, and Google accounted for 64.7 percent of those. That means that Google averaged 283 million searches per day throughout July 2009.
Those numbers are down slightly from June.
By comparison, Yahoo averaged 84.5 million searches per day and Bing averaged 38.9 billion searches per day (Bing being part of “Microsoft site”).
The summer months are usually lighter search months, comScore said. What will be very interesting to see is the impact (if any) Google Wave will have on the U.S. search industry.
