Google is already an omnipresent entity, especially when it comes to the internet. The mobile market may as well just become its latest conquest.
According to the most recent estimates from StatCounter, as relayed by Pingdom, Google currently commands a mobile search market share of 98.29%. The closest competition it has got is from Yahoo with a measly 0.8% of the total market share and a comparatively miniscule 0.4% from Microsoft’s Bing. And we reckon it is meaningless to move on to the “Others”.
The relevant graph, which was put together by Pingdom using visitor statistics for more than three million websites, shows that Google has outdone even itself when it comes to the share stats of the whole search engine market.
There has been a lot of skepticism on the matter as well. Even though Google has given itself a forward boost with all the Android hoopla, such a partial market will contradict Google’s own stand against “monopoly”. The figures however may not be as accurate as they are claimed to be. The selective studies apply to less than a majority of the areas around the globe. We have seen such surveys over the past few years and there is probably no way the market could get lopsided so soon.
