Top 1% of searchers perform 13% of all web searches

November 25th, 2007

Interesting analysis by Jeremy Crane of how web searches are distributed by user:

the top 1% of searchers performs a full 13% of all searches in a given month. If you extend this to the top 20% the number of queries increase to roughly 70%

I suspect I’m in that top 1%, CTRL-K is probably the Firefox keyboard shortcut I use most of all. This does imply that search engine usage stats would swing dramatically if these power-searchers were to switch engines…

aehso google, microsoft, search, yahoo
