According to report by Compete, Live Search has gained 1% market share as has Google. Yahoo! has lost 2% share to the competitors. The rise in Live Search’s share was expected after Windows Vista was launched with Live Search as the default search engine. As per the report “Overall web search volume on Live Search increased 10% to nearly 590 million queries in February.”
According to the report:
In order to maintain this trend Live Search is going to have to start bringing some folks over from the Google side of the fence. The gains mainly appear to be coming at the expense of Yahoo and Ask for now. We’ll also need a couple more months of data to really know what’s going on.
