As is clear from reading the statistics carried out periodically by Net Applications, Microsoft virtually has not moved in the ranking of search engines online, although some hundredth win overall.

This past May, they had not yet launched its new search engine, the two online search tools from the company (and MSN Live Search) had respectively 2.94 and 2.49% of the total market according to Net Applications This represents a 5.43% co. At the end of June, the same statistics as Bing has reached a market share of 5.31%, while Live Search (which continues active in some countries while in most parts of the globe and has been replaced by the new Microsoft search engine) holds 0.66% of the searches, which adds a 5.97% market share, barely a 0.66% increase on the previous month.

This can be seen as a failure in any rule where the multinational company headed by Steve Ballmer has invested so much time, money and marketing resources to promote the new tool. In comparison, its closest competitors (Google and Yahoo!) Took a 81.22% and 9.21% respectively of the market, having barely lost a few hundredths of a quota Bing.

I’m not saying that Microsoft has the tendency to invest in just one month, but it was expected that with all the resources invested in the new browser, that conquered the hearts of at least 2-3% over the public internet, to what it has far from come.

Nor is it easy to explain why they are suffering, someone could argue that the quality of results offered by Bing, while others might see the Internet are mostly faithful to the tools they use regularly. It is difficult to know for sure, while there are no detailed studies on the subject.
