More Local Search Data from comScore
November 27, 2005
Some more local search data was recently released by comScore. I was going to pull out all the local data to present to my readers, but Greg Sterling at Kelsey Blog has already done the work I was going to do.
comScore separately breaks out IYP usage (231,678,352 lookups in 8/05). Here’s the percentage breakdown of the data:
Yahoo! Sites—27.6%
Verizon Communications Corporation — 25.5%
Google Sites—11.6%
YellowPages.com—7.7%
Time Warner Network—7.6%
InfoSpace Network—7.0%
DexOnline.com—5.0%
SBC Communications—2.4%
Citysearch—2.4%
Yell—1.6%
BellSouth—1.4%
Ask Jeeves—0.2%
No need to repeat the same information, so for full commentary, see Greg’s Blog.
