Search Engines are now part of our daily life, whether it be carrying out research for Xmas presents or where is the nearest coffee shop open before 7 am, or looking for the best Steak House in town.

The Best and Top Search Engines over View
At Inspire we monitor our search traffic using a variety of analytics. Most of our queries returned are related to what we do and some are simply bizarre. Those we’re interested in relating to the services of what we do e.g. improving search ranking, web design, web development, and many more.
Much as we utilize “all routes to market” we are still heavily dependent on the search engines for our bread & butter traffic.
Recently we did a piece of work for a client looking to reach into the Russian market, they’d spoken to other firms who all shared about what they’d do on Google and how such experts they are. This completely missed the point as Google is not the dominant search engine in Russia, Yandex is!!!
This brought it home to me that perhaps people have assumed that because Google is a dominant Global player that they are also the dominant player in every market.
For that reason we thought it would be worthwhile having a rundown on the rest of the World, so let’s look at the top search engines in the world.
List of Top Search Engines in The World

Bing is Microsoft’s answer to Google and it was launched in 2009. Bing is the default search engine in Microsoft’s web browser. At Bing, they are always striving to make it a better search engine but it’s got a long way to go to give Google competition.
