Yahoo has more indexed pages than Google

Web search engine war is on fire. Yahoo has surpassed Google in terms of number of documents indexed. These giants are on each others neck for the last couple of years with Google on the winning side.

“our index now provides access to over 20 billion items. While we typically don’t disclose size (since we’ve always said that size is only one dimension of the quality of a search engine), for those who are curious this update includes just over 19.2 billion web documents, 1.6 billion images, and over 50 million audio and video files. Note that as with all index updates we are still tuning things so you’ll continue to see some fluctuation in ranking over the next few weeks.”

Both companies are also trying to outdo each other on the number of online acquisitions.
