Sorry, Yahoo: Google Wins Popularity Contest
ADOTAS – Yahoo, desperately clinging to its last shreds of street cred, has lost yet another battle – this time to Google.
Google is officially the most popular Web site in the U.S., according to comScore. Google lassoed about 141.1 million unique visitors last month (an 18% spike year-over-year). Yahoo attracted 466,000 fewer visitors with 140.6 million reported uniques, still up by 7% year-over-year.
However, Yahoo is still tops in length and return of page views, while Google’s visitors are more of the wham-bam-thank you-ma’am variety. Yahoo had about 33.6 billion page views, while Google had 28.7 billion.
Google is also ahead according to Nielsen’s findings – Google got 120.8 million uniques in April, compared to Yahoo’s 115.8 million, the company reports.

I strongly disagree with the comment of Google wins the popularity contest against Yahoo….Yahoo gets my vote 100%.
