In 2006, Yahoo got more traffic than Google.

I'm quite suprised by this article: http://www.ecommercetimes.com/story/...-in-2006.xhtml

FOr pure search I am sure Google won the battle

Not really surprising, yahoo has email, maps, chat, personals, and a ton of other shit. And the rank is based on page views.

Ya but Yahoo has a lot more main pages and people use it for many other things than just searches.

For example, my home page is http://www.finance.yahoo.com, but I almost never do searches on yahoo unless it's checking out keywords. For searches I use google.

So IMO traffic isn't everything I think "searches" would be the real one to look at.

Yahoo is still defacto standard in many, many countries. I'd really like to see FireFox put a Yahoo and Live search on their default start page too, would make it more useful and would be just as simple.

I also think Yahoo and MS are catching up in the search area, they are really putting some brains behind it recently.

That doesn`t come as a surprise for me. Yahoo is a "veteran" on the Internet while Google has been around only for a few years.Maybe,someday,Google will be number one.

Does the fact that Yahoo and MSN are easier to SEO (aka buttrape via onpage SEO) have something to do with it?

Bottom Line



In Billions of $
Yahoo Market Cap 40.6 Billion
Google Market Cap 143.0 Billion

In Millions of $
Yahoo Net Income 2006 757.0
Google Net Income 2006 3,077.0

And could go on and on... Yahoo is completely lost at the moment and many of their strategies are completeley off on what the customer and market wants (i.e. overture)

How did they manage to lose their huge leadership in the SE in such a short period of time? Arrogance maybe ?

Yahoo is a Directory; Google is a search engine.


Not the same thing.

Great article in the last WIRED issue about how yahoo failed to capitalize on it's acquisition of Overture, letting Google take the main stage etc. If your interested I suggest you pick it up.

Can you please not tell people Yahoo is big in traffic.

This is just smoke and mirrors folks. Keep trying to get google traffic.

Yahoo sucks Yahoo sucks

I definitely think its cause of mail.yahoo.com. If google used their main domain for the mail services instead of gmail.com it'd be a different story.
