Microsoft’s Bing search volume increased by 29% during 2010 according to comScore.

ComScore says the US search market rose by 12% last year. With it Bing’s market share is on the rise, but not at Google’s expense. Google’s search volume also rose by 13% according to comScore. The software giant’s “decision engine” now has 12% U.S. market share compared to Google’s 66.6% according to data from comScore. Yahoo’s market share dipped to 16% in December from 16.4% in November. Microsoft’s Bing search has increased its share consistently over the past few months. Bing grew faster in October than Google and Bing continues to rise in December. Bing reached an all time high of 11.8% market share in November but has improved upon the figure in December.

Bing is not a bad search engine, its main problem is that it does not have any search by time options.

It's not bad, but it is any better?

I need a valid reason to do something other than Google, since my fingers automagically just type google without thinking when I have to search. Without a very compelling reason to switch, I'm not sure why I would even give Bing a try. I know when I search for something I hit google, in the rare, rare, rare instance that Google is down for me, I go to Yahoo. Bing does not even come to mind.

I use Google 95% of the time. Otherwise I use Bing. If Google is down, I'll go to Bing before Yahoo.
