Google Dominates Search

According to new research by comScore, shows that Google powered more than half of all search requests carried out around the world in August.

The study showed that more than 61 billion searches were performed by more than 750 million users in the month.

Users performed more than 37 billion searches via Google, more than all the other major search engines combined.

Yahoo was the second most used engine, followed by Baidu, the Chinese language search engine, the report said.

"Seeing Asian search engines like China's Baidu.com and Korea's NHN ranked alongside Google and Yahoo underscores the fact that search has become a truly global phenomenon," said Bob Ivins, executive vice president of international markets at comScore, in a statement.

The Top 5:
Google sites 37 billion searches
Yahoo sites - 8.5 billion
Baidu (Chinese) 3.2 billion
Microsoft sites 2.1 billion
NHN (Korean) 2 billion
