The Inquisitr reports that traffic to Google owned sites have surpassed Yahoo for the first time. The data from ComScore shows that Google sites had a total of 141 million visitors compared to 140.6 million for Yahoo, with much of Google’s gain coming from YouTube.

Google have taken the beachhead

As Inquisitr points out when Google takes the lead in the market it generally consolidates it. Inquisitr is going to report the numbers next month. I’m opening the bidding that Google have a 60% chance of being ahead in May but I think our users will bid that up more. With the momentum that YouTube has it is hard to see how they could fall behind next month. Will Google still be ahead of Yahoo in May?
