Google Down Slightly, Bing-Yahoo Up In October comScore Search Report

Google saw its share of the US search market drop slightly in October, while both Bing and Yahoo saw corresponding gains. That’s according to comScore’s October 2014 search engine rankings.

ComScore estimates Google’s US market share at an even 67 percent for October, down from 67.3 percent in September. Yahoo was up the same 0.3 percentage points, from 10 percent to 10.3 percent. Bing saw a smaller gain, from 19.4 percent to 19.5 percent.

These are desktop searches only, so they don’t reflect Google’s strength in mobile search.
