The firm’s research arm StatCounter Global Stats finds that Bing took 8.86% in October, up from 8.51% in September but below its peak of 9.64% in August. StatCounter says that Yahoo! continues to lose market share, down to 8.91% in October from 9.4% in September and 10.5% in August. Google took 80.39% of the US market, its largest share since November ’08. “Bing’s market share has stabilised after falling since mid August,” commented Aodhan Cullen, CEO, StatCounter. “However, a worrying trend for Microsoft is that the combined Bing and Yahoo! market share has seen a steady decline from 20.36% in July to 17.77% in October.” Globally, Bing and Yahoo! combined took 7.4% of the market compared to 90.81% for Google.
