The last of my catch-up on our Facebook Friday Questions, our Facebook fans tell us that most of them buy ads on Google only, followed by Google and Bing, with only a small number buying Bing only.

So here's the first, that most people use Google more than other search engines. Surprised, right? OK, it wasn't a scientific poll, and the 222 people who responded on April 29 were a pretty small sample. Still, it was interesting to see what people focused in search marketing and search engines had to say.
