Google’s search rankings actually declined this past month according to one web traffic tracking site.
Google Sites led the pack with 2.7 billion search queries performed, followed by Yahoo Sites (1.8 billion), MSN-Microsoft (802 million), Time-Warner Network (366 million), and Ask Jeeves/Ask Network (338 million).
Google and Yahoo! continued their dominance in toolbar searches, combining for more than 95 percent of the market share in July. Google grabbed 50.3 percent of toolbar searches, while Yahoo! captured 46.2 percent.
Even though Google was on top, their actual numbers compared to previous reports dropped slightly, but still keeps them well ahead of their closest rival.
