THE 2005
TOP 50 US SEARCH ENGINES
4/15/2005 We have done our own new
accounting of traffic to the search engines. In the spirit of tax time we
audited the search engines!
www.Alexa.com
is an impartial site that isolates the position of any given site, relative to
internet traffic to their actual dot com addresses. We focused only upon
the major US search engines using the Alexa tool.
