I'm looking for information regarding market share of the biggest search engines. So I'm asking everyone to post here what percentage of their search engine traffic comes from Google, Yahoo, MSN and other SEs. The information is very important to me, so I would really appreciate your views. Just post something like that:

Google: x%
Yahoo: y%
MSN: z%
Other: v%

Once again, I ask you to post, and great thanks in advance.

So far this month I have had 551 different search engines and directories send me traffic (about 20,000 visitors).

these are the most popular:

search.yahoo.com - 23.2%
search.msn.com - 22.2%
google.com - 18%
dir.yahoo.com - 2.8%
sea.search.msn.com - 1.4%
aolsearch.aol.com - 1.2%
google.ca - 1.1%

The last couple of months google has been #2, Google was #1 very month before that. For 2 1/2 years, Google was closer to 50% of my referals, until about June of this year.

Wow, you must have a monster site! How long have you had the site for?

I have a 6 month old site and I have about 10 different search engines send me traffic. This month I am going to get around 3000 visitors. Google sends me 95 percent of all my traffic so far, yahoo is next, msn is last. The rest of the search engines or directories are really negligable.
