Hitwise has just released the latest figures on search market share…and Google continues to gain popularity. According to the figures, Google now accounts for a record 66 percent share of web searches in the United States, which is up 7 percent from last year!

Google’s gain means a loss for the second and third place engines, as Yahoo dropped from 21.6 percent to 20.9 percent while Microsoft has seen a drop from 9.8 percent to a little over 7 percent.

Ask (formerly Ask Jeeves), continues to slowly build up some momentum, with an increase from 3.7 percent to a little over 4 percent.

Hello everyone!

The Staff and I at Proceptive just wanted to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving. This is my first Thanksgiving in our new house and my wife is taking on the huge task of preparing for the family. Should be wonderful. We hope your day is filled with good food and great company.

Best wishes,

James Svoboda

For those of us in the search engine marketing industry, we are thinking of another type of upheaval capturing the online industry.
