Second place in search engines – who ranks behind Google?

[sakibkhan22197]

In Germany, Google is the clear number one search engine. With a market share of 95.8% (source: luna-park.de ), it's almost a monopoly. However, there are other search engines that will sooner or later challenge Google's position.

I have selected some of the search engines that currently share the remaining 4.2% market share for you in the following list.

Note 1: The individual conclusions "only" highlight the advantages over Google. The rest follows in the final conclusion.

Note 2: This article only considers "classic" search engines. I've left out search engines like Pinterest, YouTube, and others.

Number 1 competitor – Bing
Google's fiercest competitor is Bing. The search engine, launched by Microsoft, has had a direct partnership with Yahoo since 2009 and has a significantly stronger presence and more extensive reach in the US than in Germany and the rest of Europe. While Bing has a market share of 24.7% in the US (source: statista.com) ,), in Germany it is just 2.3%.

In addition, Bing is the only search engine that offers an alternative to Google My Business. Bing's "Local Pack" is called Bing Places and offers virtually the same features as Google My Business.

More information about Bing Places can be found here .

Conclusion:
Bing now offers a good alternative to Google. Bing Places and Bing Maps also offer a local ivory coast phone number data alternative. The quality of the results is always a matter of opinion, of course, but I'm personally more satisfied with Google's results.



Bing as a search engine


Ecosia – the green alternative
Ecosia is one of the few German search engines on the market. Its search results are based on the Bing algorithm and therefore differ significantly from Google results. The passion of Ecosia's founders is environmental protection. The revenue generated from search ads is used to plant new trees in Burkina Faso.

It's also interesting to note that Ecosia operates completely transparently and doesn't want to hide anything about its corporate structure from its users. Point 12 of Ecosia's blog is very interesting: https://de.blog.ecosia.org/50-grunde-ecosia-zu-nutzen/

Ecosia is currently taking advantage of the trend towards greater environmental awareness and is therefore riding the “green wave.”

Conclusion:
Since the results are based on Bing searches, you'll naturally get the same results here. Unlike Bing, however, the focus here is on a "good idea," which would make me more likely to use Ecosia privately. However, the integration of a "local pack" would be desirable. What isn't there yet, however, could still happen.
