comScore, a company that “measures the digital world”, has released their monthly qSearch analysis of the internet activity across the major search engines. comScore reports that in July 2007, Google Sites ranked as the top core search engine with 55.2 percent share of searches among the top five search engines. Yahoo! Sites ranked second with 23.5 percent, followed by Microsoft Sites (12.3 percent), Ask Network (4.7 percent) and Time Warner Network (4.4 percent).
