How does Sogou compare?

I take it Baidu is the biggest SE in China now.
I get spidered by Sogou there and see some hits from that engine.
I'm wondering how Sogou rates in the SE wars in China, and how it compares to Baidu. -Larry

Sogou doesn't compare to my Baidu, Google or Yisou traffic. It's still a fairly small piece of my Chinese SE traffic. From my vantage they're about #4 or #5.

Thanks Bill. Sogou sounds minor league for now.
And thanks to Woz for splitting off a new thread. -Larry

Well, according to an article I quoted [webmasterworld.com] a few months ago Sougou was #2 after Baidu...but that was Alexa data so I wouldn't give it all that much weight.

I'd prefer to think they were #2, they spidered my whole site at least.
Baidu just takes the home page and leaves, probably for lack of Chinese content. -Larry
