Search Me - Top Search Engines
October 3, 2007 on 8:32 am | In Promotion, Online, Tools, Pay-Per-Click, PPC, PR, Public Relations, Marketing |
The big three search engines recently have rolled out upgrades. Yahoo! is the latest to come to market with what industry insiders refer to as “blended results.” This simply means that blog postings, images, video, and other rich media content are rolled up into a single search with other organic results. Yahoo! also has introduced a new Search Assist feature that allows you to refine your search from the outset instead of tweaking terms two to three times until the correct results appear.
Microsoft also recently debuted an improved Live, its search engine. In June, Google launched its updated Personalized Search. Google now commands more than a 56% share of all search traffic, with Yahoo! coming in a distant second with a 23% share in the US market.
The top three search engines can be found here: Yahoo!, Live & Google. I happen to like Dogpile and Webcrawler, which search the top search engines simultaneously.
Here is what some other bloggers are saying about recent search engine improvements.

I’ve looked at all the updates from the big three. So far i really like Yahoo!. I feal that google isnt looking to do any major updates as it feels it doesnt have to.
Personally i think ask.com is the best design.

they stole the idea from Mahalo.com
Comment by Barfly — October 3, 2007 #
Google has been so far ahead that they do seem to be coasting, while the others desperately try to catch up with me-too features. I also like the new look and functionality of Ask. And to Barfly’s point, Mahalo, the human-powered search engine, was ahead of the curve.
