Why only Google for SEO?

14 years ago

The main reason being Google commands over 90% of search visitors, just view your logs to find out. It is not worthwhile to focus on any other search engines, IMO.

That also means that the other search engines get less competition, so it is easier to rank!

I think it's because Google gets more searches than all the other search engines. Yahoo and MSN get a very small percentage and most of it is from Google anyway.

Almost 60-70% of searches are done on Google. Then another 23-27% are done on Bing and Yahoo. And rest 10 odd percent on other search engines. So just think which search engine you want to target. Google, right.

The reason that you might ignore SEO for Bing is that they tend to reverse engineer the Google results. It also seems to me that Bing is much weaker in terms of spam filters. So, they rely more on authority sites than Google

I think google has been the number one famous search engine for visitors to get the exact answers.because google has the most powerful tool than the other search enginers.But there are a lot of people use the regional and religious search engines because of their long time habits.

Google is no. search engine and it contains maximum searches among different search engines. so, website owners prefer to Google, when it comes to search engine rankings. Google counts only quality back links, so build quality back links for your website.

We do any work to get benefit from it.Now we know Google is the main SE which provides 80-90% traffic.Then why we should try to keep focus on any SE.If we ll feel any other SE can provide same traffic or results then we can target any other SE too.

The methods that are working for Google also work for Bing and Yahoo, so there is no need to do anything differently. ;-)

Outside of market share, which has been already talked about on this thread I think its worthwhile to mention that what works on Google, works with Yahoo/Bing and others even if it sometimes takes longer.

The Main Reason To Work Only for Google is that-->> Google Crawler is very Fast and It is Update Very Quick.

Other Search engine have Slow Crawler..and they Update very Slowly.
This is The Reason People Generally Work For Google.

Google is the most popular search engine people are using. Google has around 80% of the search market. If you rank well in Google you will rank well in Yahoo and Bing if you have a properly optimized website in my opinion.

Hope this helps.

Google dominates the market for searches. They hold between 85% to 90% of the market.

As for other search engines... if you are optimizing for Google you often see great results in the other search engines anyway.

Typically for sites I get rankings for on page one of Google I also end up with page one on both Yahoo and Bing.

the other engines have such a small market share that the volume is not as big as google...this is why google is the main focus...the other engines like yahoo and bing focus more on the onsite factors..
