Local Search Market Share

[Adamk]

I was hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I am looking for some research that compares Google+, Yahoo, Yelp, Yp etc. local search market share.

Thanks.

Hi Adam,

Great Q but I don't have an answer off hand.

Let's see of some members chime in and if no one does by tomorrow 9 AM PST, please bump this thread to remind me and I'll tweet it to see if anyone knows of a study.
My Tweets get best return in the AM.

I'd check out Greg Sterling's site:

Screenwerk: Online and Offline Media and Everything In-Between

Also BIA/Kelsey

The Local Media and Advertising Experts | BIA/Kelsey

I can't think of a specific post / report that has the numbers you're looking for. But if they're anywhere, they're somewhere in there.

Have you considered using a service like Alexa - The Web Information Company or maybe Google trends?

I guess it depends on why and how accurate you need the information to be or if you just want to know the difference in popularity.
