Request for Question Clarification by bobbie7-ga on 07 Oct 2006 15:33 PDT

Hello Lokiforever-ga,

I located Google, Yahoo and MSN market share information for global
Internet searches for May 2006. I did not locate the number of
searches, only the percentage.

Would this information be of your interest?

I have the market percentages for worldwide searches, or at least data
for Google at 61%.  But the absolute number of searches worlwide seems
to be unknown.  In the blogoshpere, there is considerable criticism of
the comscore numbers published for the US market total searches.. I
wonder if this data worlwide is even available?

As shown in the comscore research
(http://www.comscore.com/press/release.asp?press=935), during the
second quarter of 2006 Google recieved 8,753 million search queries,
Yahoo 5,607 million search queries and MSN 2,571 million search
queries.
