In the latest interview with reuters.com, Yusuf Mehdi, Senior VP of Microsoft Online Business said that Bing will make money online soon. As BingWatch team has been followed Bing prior to the birth on May 28, 2009, based on several months of traffic data and search engine market indicators, we strongly believe Mehdi’s team will finally hit Bing jackpot.
After the successful launch, Bing has captured close to 11% of search market share in America during the month of December 2009. Bing will soon reach number two search engine in America, as Bing and Yahoo will enter into a 10-years global partnership which make Bing + Yahoo at around 30% of search market share in America.
As reported by reuters.com quoted Mehdi “Ultimately we want to be a major player at scale, so we're going to have to grow against Google at some point." Later Mehdi added “we're still outmanned and outgunned by Google, they still have way more engineers than we do."
