I intentionally low-balled the number since I didn't have hard data at my fingertips. You are right, SEOs, serious researchers, and journalists tend to dig the deepest in the search for information. Ways the SEs succeed and fail? You're on. :-) OK, Larry, thanks for your input. I intentionally low-balled the number since I didn’t have hard data at my fingertips.

I see nowhere that says they actually have 60% of the users. What I mean is this. More advanced users use google. advanced users search way more times per day than the average potential customer. Since msn is the default start page for most users, with aol being next, then many changing to yahoo in a short amount of time, can anyone show me proof that more actual users use google? Again, not the most searches, the most users. I have a question for people to comment on regarding the search engines.

And, it's not just the raw number of searches - we drill down on site content, site structure, linking strategies, partners, use of meta data and on until we see source code with our eyes shut. I would have enjoyed hearing your opinions on what ways SEs fail, what ways they succeed, and how they might be improved. Tackle that one in the days ahead and I'll chime in.
