Google is the biggest and baddest engine out there with MSN s to sneek up behind them in the future.....Yahoo used to get fed by Google.....then they purchased Inktomi for 235 million and I believe they use it now..end result I use Google and MSN

Precise reasoning and choice here as well.

I very rarely use Yahoo.. it's my third choice.

I use Google as my default SE. Honestly, I think it's more a habit now than anything else. It's become comfortable over a period of time. I do check Yahoo and MSN (etc.) and have nothing against them, but it normally starts and stops with the big 'G'.

I primarily use Google, but I also use the Yahoo directory because the listed sites in most cases have high quality content.

I asked because 99% of the search engine traffic I get on my carrieunderwood.ws site comes from Yahoo searches... I wonder what the reason is for that?

The site after a week up is already showing up on the first page results in most instances. Weird!

Google, does take a second to load, adsense and adwords programs are great. Simply the better on the net now.

Yahoo! indexes sites very quickly and gets alot more pages than google does and the search results reflect that. Google is headed downhill, and honestly is more of a brand than it is a quality search engine. As far as the search engine i use... I have found Twingine.com very useful since it displays Yahoo and Google results side by side.

That's right. Google is very slow and is somewhat unreliable when someone is looking for new sites.
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=95205

Most of my newly created sites are not indexed by Google yet, while they have been indexed by Yahoo in one (or two) weeks! Because of this I prefer Yahoo-I consider it more reliable.

I believe Google is soooo commercial these days. The search results are not so great compared them to two or three years before...
