What are the top search engines?

Here is a ranking of the top search engines, with an approximate percentage on how many use each:

These percentages are based on data from StatCounter for the month of September 2023. It is important to note that market share can vary depending on the country or region. For example, Baidu is the most popular search engine in China, while Yandex is the most popular search engine in Russia.

Google is the dominant search engine in the world, with a market share of over 90%. This means that over 90% of all web searches are performed on Google. Bing is the second most popular search engine, with a market share of around 3%. Yahoo! is the third most popular search engine, with a market share of around 1.5%.

Other search engines, such as Baidu, Yandex, and DuckDuckGo, have smaller market shares, but they are still popular in certain countries or regions.

It is also important to note that the search engine market is constantly changing. New search engines are emerging all the time, and existing search engines are constantly improving their algorithms and features. As a result, it is difficult to say with certainty which search engines will be the most popular in the future.
