Bing growing in popularity, not in ad spending
Bing’s share of search engine ad spending for the second quarter remained at less than 6% - where it’s been for years. The report has Yahoo down to a 17% share of search spending and a loss of 26% in search share from a year-ago. All the while, Google has risen to 77% in search engine ad spending, well above the rest.

Bing isn’t exactly out of the game, though. It was noted in the report that researchers have seen an increase in Bing’s search query share since its early June launch. It says that search query share shows an interest at the consumer level, while spend share is an indication of advertisers’ interests. Spend share typically lags behind search query share, so spending may rise in the third quarter.

www.google-vs-bing.com is an interesting site if you want to compare results side by side. I still get better results from Google, IMO. |

Can't go a day without seeing a Bing ad somewhere online or on television. But from personal preference Bing still has issues with certain results for me. While Google isn't perfect and gives many erroneous results its the least of the search engines so I still prefer it |

I've switched to Bing for no particular reason and I don't miss Google at all, though, unlike many, I never had any preferential "feelings" toward Google to begin with. |
