Can Bing or Blekko Beat Google?



Problem is that a single company like Google dominates the whole web, whole business ideas are depending probably only on Google, because let's be serious: who cares about placement in Bing if you ain't ranking in Google ? Actually nobody...
 
i think now that facebook and bing are working together and yahoo also now uses bing, i think market share of google is gonna go down for search, how much nobody can predicts.

Could Bing or Blekko Top Google in the Search-Engine Wars? - TIME

the problem with google is all the information they hold, they track everything and everyone, now they are even in the cellphone business, not far fetched that when you activate their gps system and allow them to use it, they an see which stores you go in, all to get more data for ads. altough so far google has not revealed information, i don't like anyone having that much information about me no matter the advantages of the product
 
I think that Bing has no chance to beat Google, and Blekko even less chances (personally, i don't like it, it seems a poor imitation of Google, and i'm not mentioning that the results you get on a search are less relevant than in the first two browsers i've mentioned)
 
I had to check out Blekko to see what it is all about. Looks pretty simple and streamlined. I like the way it gives you additional keywords the way Google does.

It could be a help for keyword research...we'll see.
 
Bing beating google wouldn't be any better though, cause then bing (Microsoft) is richer than Google, then has even more excessive market share. Can Yahoo make it back to the top spot?
 
Google still holds the ground and Bing has been here for over a year and not growing fast to catch Google. It is not much of a threat to Google in the current situation.

When it comes to Blekko, you guys might have heard about Cuil.com which was started by former Google engineers over a year ago I believe and everybody were saying that it might be a threat to Google but till now there's not even a small sign. Same thing will happen to Blekko and lots of other searchengines.

Anyway, I would love to see the end of Google domination. They still are the king and will stay there period but technology world is unpredictable. Let's just wait and see who eats who? Most important let's just ride the Google wave and earn fortune.
 
I this if Googles keeps things clean, sanitized, and doesn't get too complicated, it will be the top-dog...indefinitely. But I have noticed they are starting to make things a little cluttered ie. their instant website previews. Hell, they block the adword ads on the right side of the page.
 
the website previews are so annoying, i get it on my netbook, it's a drag, slows down the browser so much.

They will probably phase it out, they tend to invent stuff to test, and discard it a lot.

But google are too good for that, they're not going to let bing take over.

It all depends on the consumer though, consumers are too gullible sometimes, bing isn't all that great, they just copied google, but put more emphasis on domain age, and site size. So if you have an older domain and a big site, you have a little better chance of ranking in bing than in google.

However most of the other stuff are same/similar, they both like nice body text anchor links in keyword dense articles
 
As much as I'd like to see Google lose some dominance I'm not sure a Microsoft run search engine is going to be better. Atleast Google doesn't manually screw with rankings, you can bet Microsoft will be happy to rank you higher organically for a small price.
 
The two Stanford guys that founded Google did so on the basis of building a better mousetrap. They worked extensively on developing the best mathematical search algorithms that had ever been devised. Since then, they continue to enhance the mathematical depth of Google algorithms. So far, no one (especially Bing) has even come remotely close to the sophistication of Google's algorithms. So long as that remains true Google will, and should, dominate the Internet.
