Bing / Yahoo Search engine

interesting data, yahoo and bing are still far from a serious competition though...

I disagree with that statement to a degree.

Yes, even combined they do not have the marketshare that Google does, but ANY THING that eats into the very valuable marketshare is real competition for them, and I think that Bing's overall share will continue to grow as is their share of the browser and phone market is growing.

I do think that Google will continue to command a much higher share for a long time to come, but I also think we will see the percentages they have now be reduced over time.

Yes, Google has the biggest market share, but it is important to not discard the little bit of juice (traffic) Yahoo and Bing can produce. Specially when some of the new purchased computers comes with the Bing or Yahoo as default search engines.

Yes, and mobiles too that have bing as the default.

It would also be interesting to understand relative conversion rates for our industry by search engine, I'd hazard a guess that as a percentage of traffic Google is lower than the others due to a greater level of pollution from SEOs.
