I know that Google is the "big one" for search engines, but I receive much more of my traffic and serious property enquiries through the other big two.
Surprisingly - MSN spits out more traffic than any other SE and I have made omst of my money though MSN. Yahoo is not far behind, but google just has not lived up to the standards as the others. OK, some of the sites that I have and look after donīt rank well in Google but I am basing it on an average of all the sites.
Everyone barks on about Google - I donīt hate Google but I am leaning more towards the others due to the results that I get. Yes Google is the biggest and best know SE but do you guys find the same as me or is the USA big time Google?

Re: I receive more traffic from MSN & yahoo
I also get the most traffic from MSN. Google is next & Yahoo follows. I have one site with some top positioning in Google & another site on page one of G but MSN still beats them for me.
Money Magazine says that Orland Park real estate is one of the best places to live in the U.S. Check out Homer Glen homes if you're interested in living in the newest Chicago suburb. Next door, Lemont homes are the priciest in the southwest suburbs and have held their value, even appreciating while prices in other areas have gone down.

Google = 64% of my traffic. Everything else makes up the other 36%. Google owns MSN and Yahoo.

Re: I receive more traffic from MSN & yahoo
Obviously if you are number 1 on MSN and Number 999 on Google - More traffic will come from MSN.

Re: I receive more traffic from MSN & yahoo
And if you are number 4 in google for a search and number 10 in msn how do you explain that, that is why I ask the question.
MSN and yahoo seem to produce more traffic, my sites are well ranked (well some of them), everyone goes on about google this and google that, but for me I have generated more money from the other search engines. So its not whether I am ranked high in google or not, its where my sales come from and where I get the most traffic and interest from and that is not google.

My Oak Lawn real estate site is #1-3 on page 1 of G & MSN for different kw's. I get more traffic from MSN.

Re: I receive more traffic from MSN & yahoo
Is the MSN keyword that is ranked high a stronger keyword than the G keyword that is ranked high?

Re: I receive more traffic from MSN & yahoo
Im interested to see how Vistas messes with our numbers. They have live.com results as default in the browser. This should bring more searches to MSN.
