User percentage figures tend to vary from one study to another.

One thing is consistently clear - the world favourite search engine is Google (65-70%) with the second and third favourites being Bing(15-20%) and Yahoo(10-15%)

Yahoo search results are generated by Bing as Yahoo don't run a search engine anymore they offer search on their domain with results powered by Bing this has been since 2011 prior to that Yahoo ran their own search engine.

Other minor search engines in terms of the search market share are AOL and Ask.

Searches engines offer a fantastic service they allow us to search for anything we want such as products, services or information.
