Why isn't Bing as popular as Google? - MissilePowerGamer - 04-08-2014 07:51 PM
I recently changed my search engine from Google to Bing, and I realised how much nicer the interface and homepage was on Bing. With Google, the nicest thing is the Google Doodle you get every occasion; the nicest thing with Bing is the HD photograph of an interesting place or event every day! The Google homepage allows you to select different categories from there and allows you to search the topics of Google Doodles directly by clicking on it; Bing does all this as well and features News and Images highlights!
I know Google own YouTube which is constantly increasing in poularity (The stupid decisions of the company are why I switched to Bing), but before that Google were still more popular than Bing if my memory serves me correctly and the only real way YouTube contributes to Google's website is by being a link and forcing everyone to make a Google+ account.
So why isn't Bing as popular as Google? I don't understand.
Thanks!

Search engines cosmetics are not the reason I use google over anything. It's the relative searches and matches to what I'm looking for. I think most techies can agreed on that. What good is a nicer interface, pictures and all the bells and whistles when you have irrelevant results.
