Search engines

[Brian Ellis]

Most of the searches on my websites are via either Google or MSN

The following are the search phrases for Google, over the last week, at the moment:

The astounding thing is that, with one exception, the MSN "phrases" are single words while, with Google, again with one exception they are all multiword. It would seem that MSN reports differently from Google, providing hits based on single words rather than all the words.

Anyone else seen this behaviour?

You forgot about one significant factor.

The kind of people who use Google vs. the ones who use what shows up when they click "Blue Internet".
