According to the recent reports from Search Engine Land, Yahoo has seen a big jump in its share of the search market.
The deal made in November to replace Google as the default Search Engine in Firefox 34 has led to a big jump in percentage points.
Yahoo search was used three times more on Firefox 34 than on Firefox 33.
The installed user base of Firefox 34 is low given that it’s new and most users haven’t upgraded. In addition, Firefox’s US market share overall is roughly 15 percent.
StatCounter reported, however, that as a result of the new default relationship with Firefox, Yahoo search share on the browser has grown from 9.6 percent to 29.4 percent. By contrast, Google usage in Firefox 34 has declined to just over 63 percent.
