Web CEO Metrics – December, 2008

Here we are sharing the generalized numbers from our HitLens Web Analytics service. It covers 300,000+ websites from all over the world.

Global Search Engines (%)

This chart gives the idea of the market share of each of the three major search engines. As we can see, Google’s share has slightly grown over the year, while all other search engines are not gaining in popularity.

Visitor Referrers (%)

You can see how visitors are being referred to websites. Despite the fact that social media is growing in popularity, search engines keep the crown and remain a top referrer. SEO does make a lot of sense even in our Web 2.0+ era!
