The internet is a very dynamic sector, one moment something is popular then the next moment its not. Currently there are three major search engines in the mix, they are Google, Yahoo and Bing and Twitter is also very much on the rise. So where will these major players be in a decade from now?

Let us take a quick look at this and have a prediction.

Google

Currently the big papa of them all Google has more then 80% of the total search market in its hands. But lately it seems as though the company just does not have the push that it used to. They seem to be concentrating a lot more on getting into other markets such as mobile phones and operational systems. In around ten years time Google may well be knocked off of their perch.

Bing

Microsoft are actually doing some big things with their search engine. As well as rebranding themselves, Microsoft are also going to be joining forces with Yahoo and powering their search, as well as acquiring access to Yahoos technology and algo. We all know that Yahoo know how to analyse natural links and natural citations a lot better then Bing. So the two joining up may make them a force to be reckoned with, especially with the money that Microsoft could be putting into it.

Yahoo

Yahoos search technology and engineers will live on but the results look to be taken over by Bing. The two could actually end up rivalling Google.

Twitter

The new kid on the block. Twitter has spread like wild fire and has recently redesigned its homepage in an attempt to become a real time search engine. Can it succeed? Yes in all likelihood, but people want to begin seeing in reality real sites not merely conversations. So either Twitter will have to learn to develop and actually crawl, list and rank sites or end up being another social has been.

For the best SEO and great Web Design
