Google Sites Ranks as Top Indian Search Property

Google Sites ranked as the top search property in India with more than 1 billion searches conducted in June, representing 81 percent of the market. Yahoo! Sites ranked second with 9.4 percent, followed by Ask Network (1.9 percent) and Microsoft Sites (1.7 percent). Indian Internet portal Rediff.com ranked fifth with 1.5 percent.

"The Indian search market is dominated by global Internet brands, with Google attracting the wide majority of searches," said Jack Flanagan, comScore executive vice president. "As the top local player in the search market, Indian web portal Rediff.com attracts slightly less than 2 percent of all searches, indicating that there is substantial room for growth among the local Internet brands."

Search Intensity Lags in India, Indicating Opportunity for Growth

Despite being one of the most rapidly emerging Internet markets in the world in terms of overall usage growth, India currently exhibits less frequent search behavior than its global counterparts. Of the 37 countries individually reported by comScore, India ranked second to last with 53 searches per searcher during the month, well below the worldwide average of 93. India also had significantly fewer search visits per searcher (14.7 vs. 23.6) and searches per search visit (3.6 vs. 3.9).

"Though India represents more than 15 percent of the world's population, it accounts for less than 2 percent of global Internet searches," added Mr. Flanagan. "It will be interesting to see if this gap narrows as more people in India gain Internet access and ramp up their use of search over time."
