It’s strange indeed…Yahoo does not promote his Search Engine in the Netherlands…
Very interesting Paul, especially the lack of public awareness of “Live”.
From the same report;
Public Awareness
Google 99% (+1)
Ilse 89% (=0)
Live.nl (before MSN Search) 42% (-29)
Yahoo! 72% (=0)
Lycos 68% (+1)
Very interesting trends – the public awareness of Ilse has always been amazing compared to the “big boys” of Yahoo! and Microsoft.
Very interesting to see as well that Google keeps growing terrain – looking forward to see the results of the next market research, and how Live develops.
It’s expected to see a raise in awareness and use of Live as Microsoft markets the product and people slowly become aware of the transition.
That looks like a pretty good result for Yahoo to me – I guess the team there will be pleased!
