Italian search information

I'm looking for info into Italian search sites

[telm]

Can anyone point me in the right direction to find information on the search market in Italy?

I'm looking to find out how big the search market is - the top domains providing search for users, who the top providers are, the total number of searches made (daily/monthly), how many searches made per person...

thanks

Telm - welcome to WebmasterWorld!
Yes it's true - Billy has already pointed you to some of the best info you'll find on the web. When reding through the discussion on italian search engines make sure to go further than just the overview on top - lots of additions from italian experts!

Another resource - though to be taken with more than a grain of salt is this: http://it.jupitermmxi.com/xp/it/data/thetop.xml [it.jupitermmxi.com]

What you are asking for is very very specific info, which will be very hard to obtain for any country. It's doubtful if the SEs are even willing to hand those data out to anybody.

Perhaps our italian members will have some more tips?

Thanks guys, it will take me a while to plough through this but there looks like some good pointers.

I would still like the specifics - so lets hope someone in Italy is reading!

While we're looking at other countries... is there the same sort of information available on WebmasterWorld for Spain?

thx

You probably found the country threads on Spain and France?
Apart from that I would advise you to use the sitesearch.

It's in the very nature of a discussion forum not to merely produce fact sheets and overviews, but to collect and renew knowledge on an ongoing basis.

Also I'm convinced that this form of sharing and collecting knowledge is appropriate to the ever changing nature of the field we're working in.

Please feel free to ask any specific question directly in the forum or in the country threads - we'll be happy to help.

Hope you'll find what you are looking for here on the board - to my best knowledge this is the best cross european resource on the web.

no worries
i've checked out the threads and Jupiter... I'm more inclined to go with the view of the board!
