Yahoo vs Google

[adah101]

Yahoo vs Google? which is the best?

[danlefree]

Depends upon whether you prefer apples over oranges?

Are you interested in the differences between the quality of search, the quality of search referral traffic, site usability at Yahoo versus Google, ..?

[killnhack]

depends on locations and sometimes internet provider.

[Webnauts]

I agree with all above. Nothing left to add there.

[chowell]

I would argue that neither is better than the other.

Each works well in it's own right, depending on what you're trying to find or what your objective is.

Google works best for finding information (I have found).
Yahoo works good for shopping, etc.

[Emilyecho]

It is hard to compare them.

[Plaulkskesy]

exciting and communicative, but would participate in something more on this topic?

[regmac]

Well, i turn to yahoo whenever I don't find the things I need with google and vice versa.. So I guess this two stands out differently..

[bama1965]

In my limited experience - Google is better in getting visitors to my new site.

I also have a site that's been online since 2000 and the results are the same.

[satyaseo]

what are you talking about, they both are good respectively. in search engines google is good and in mails and messenger yahoo.....

[mitosblog]

Google is the best for me as it provides the highest number of visitors for my blog hosted under blogspot.com

[rupesh12]

Google and Yahoo both are most popular search engines, but in compare Google is best in technique, we always gives 1 preference Google to see crawling rate and back links, but it's more difficult to compare.

[Wise Woodpecker]

I have been using Google for 5 years but now I'm about to give it up... since it's inconvenient interface with all these stupid gadgets, absolutely inconvenient gmail-service, etc.
Yahoo!

[joyblogs]

I prefer Yahoo.. When I click internet browser, the first entry is Yahoo.com..

[sdohrn]

Yahoo is more accurate in listing backlinks, but google has more webmaster tools.

Each has its weaknesses, but Google has a much larger following when you consider Youtube and search. Google is better than Yahoo when you condiser the numbers, but I would not leave Yahoo, in the cold, when trying to improve your traffic. Yahoo is a must when trying to run an online business if you want to maximize your chances to get a sale or traffic.

if you are talking about Search engines Then google is best , But if you are talking about whole services from Both providers Then Both are Good , Google have gmail best in there way , yahoo have chat room and messenger , Google have blogspot , Yahoo have mybloglog , i know its new but very good for all kind of peoples like (SEO, Business, Community ) And for making money Via Ads google is best for all , but yahoo publisher is just For USA , So google is again ahead from yahoo

[ekta74]

I prefer google when it comes to searching/browsing..and on the other hand i prefer yahoo when it comes to chatting/mailing..

[clientdixon]

Totally agree with other. Both provide excellent service but depend on the objective. for any information one can rely on google and for shopping or other yahoo is good.

[ChiefLee]

I tend to use Google almost exclusively at this point. I can usually find what I'm looking for.

Interesting, both of my younger kids use google first, then if they can't find what they want, they go to ask.com. Even though their email addresses are through Yahoo.

[lookatme]

Google and Yahoo both are popular search engines!
But I prefer google is the best for me.

[kbeus21]

Should not even be a question-Google of course. That is why they hold 60+ of the search volume while yahoo is down in the 20's.

[Cigtina23]

In the matter of making a research I'll go with Google, but in the matter
of games, news, entertainment and etc.. I will go to yahoo. Though I
prefer using Google, Yahoo is also good.

[gauravgr8]

well All above said very well and justifies that non of them can be compared or differentiate in many cases
but what for we all are here the main target is the "Users"

and as far as i have noticed the current "Users" are more tech. filtered compare to past time so what i felt is that as per "need of change" the " user" get diverted what can satisfy it.. which probably some extend GOOGLE does wether search engine or mailing , or business wise .

So somewhere End user wise Google Rules- dat's what i feel

[innominds]

Google is the best search engine. Yahoo is just a portal with so many extras.

[delnd]

I prefer Google to searh although my blog rank well in Yahoo 1

BTW NiNA, how many time you have disturbing "us"

[Jasoncreja]

both are best only depends upon the place some countries are preferring yahoo as a search engine some are google....

[blupa]

I preffer Google not really sure what one is the best though.

[Uncle Dog]

2nd - Google - 17,300

[michael_dans]

All the views given above are correct but in my personal opinion, for searching purpose Google ranks above Yahoo and will always stay ahead. Yahoo can't beat google, as there is huge traffic through Google. But do remember one thing, this is only my opinion.

[FreeniSoign]

Greetings & Hello am only posting to make sure this works on this web site and wanting to say hello and that I really learned from here.

[scarcius121]

Google sends us the most traffic. Personally though, I use Yahoo only because I like all the news and stuff on the homepage, so I use it to search too.

[cg0404]

Better for whom? The user wanting to search or for the site owner? Everyone knows that Google has the greatest percentage of all searches, then Bing and Yahoo fall in somewhere way behind. Does that mean they don't return a good result? Here is an example, I used a tool that pulls both from Google and Bing for restaurants in my local area, Bing gave a map listing that shows many and Google did not. For a person that is traveling, the Bing result might have been better in that case.

So, the best one, is the one which gives you the best result for what you need at the time.

[ArijitKRoul]

I prefer Google over Yahoo, most of the time I use Google because its provide useful results than Yahoo.

[notsoold]

I prefer google as a search engine user since it gives me what I need most of the time. As a website owner, I also prefer google since it gives me more traffic.
