December 2009 Newsletter |
Welcome to the December
Web Based Recruitment newsletter.
In this edition of the newsletter we will take a look at the Search
Engines and their popularity in the UK.
Top UK Search Engines By Volume
If you thought most people used Google as their search engine of
choice you are absolutely right!
According to the latest stats (released by
Hitwise) Google.co.uk accounts
for 76.33% of all searches. If you then add the searches made at the
Google.com web site (12.41%) then in total Google has a massive 88.74% of
the searches made in the UK!

As you can see from the
graph below Google also dominates the number of visits in the UK as well!

Can A Job Seeker Find
Your Recruitment Web Site
In The Search Engines?
With the search
engines fast becoming the first point of call for job seekers when
starting their job search when was the last time you put yourself in the
role of a job seeker?
Do you know where your own web site appears in
the search engine results when you search for the types of vacancies
you have to offer? The results may well surprise you!
Do You Have A Plan For Increasing Your Visibility In The Search
Engines?
There is no doubt that the search engines will play an
increasingly important role in helping job seekers find relevant
recruitment sites online. The question is - will job seekers
be able to find your web site?
If you would like to find out how we can help improve your
visibility in the search engines to attract targeted job seekers
