It has been about two and a half years since Microsoft launched it's new search engine, Bing. Now that search engine has caught up with Google's previously only competitor, Yahoo. Since, Bing's launch, it has only seen growth.

According to a recent report by ComScore, Bing seems to be increasing its market share in November to an even 15 percent, while Yahoo’s dropped to 15.1 percent.

Google currently holds 65.4 percent of the market for “explicit” search measurement. The report also does not show mobile web activity either.

Last year, comScore measured Google’s market share at 66.2 percent--it seems that the Yahoo marketshare has been divided by Google and Bing.
