Google is the most popular destination

For many online watchers, nothing excites more than the latest episode from the Googlenama.

They won’t be disappointed to know that the world’s largest search engine – rather largest online marketer – is also the most popular among the US web users.

The search market has for long remained under Google’s overwhelming domination. But now it is also most visited in the US, though close behind is Yahoo.

Here are some figures I quote from The Big Money that quotes from comScore findings:

Total US online audience in June, 2009: 193 million
Google: 156,871,000
Yahoo: 154 million
Microsoft: 127 million
AOL: 106 million
Fox Interactive Media: 84 million
Facebook: 77 million
Ask: 73 million
eBay: 71 million
Amazon: 63 million
Wikimedia sites: 60 million

Twitter enters the top 50 for the first time with 20 million visitors.
