Hitwise: Google Tops In May
New stats now posted from Hitwise show Google has the highest share of visits by US web surfers of all search and directory sites that Hitwise tracked in May 2005.
It's never good to depend too much on month-to-month changes, as I've written before. Nevertheless, both Yahoo and MSN will take heart that the rankings are virtually unchanged from April 2005. Here's a comparison:
| Service | 4/05 |
5/05 |
Change |
37.8% |
38.3% |
0.5% |
|
| Yahoo | 18.5% |
18.4% |
-0.1% |
| MSN | 15.8% |
15.6% |
-0.3% |
See the Hitwise Search Engine Ratings page within Search Engine Watch for the full top 10 list in terms of search engine popularity, including how popular image search is. Top portal front page usage is also shown.
