Following Mozilla’s Deal, Yahoo! Triples Its Market Share

By | January 16, 2015



If you are wondering how exactly the new search engine deal (where Yahoo! replaced Google as a default search engine in Firefox) has affected the trends in the industry, just take a look at the new data from Net Applications.

According to the new stats, Yahoo! has managed to [almost] triple its market share, up from 3.52% to 9.31% (5.79 points increase).

Strangely enough, Google has also experienced a big growth, up from 53.74% to 66.44% (12.7 points increase).

Next month’s data should be pretty interesting to see if the new trend lasts.
