This March, Google for the first time edged Microsoft in the number of unique visitors reports SFGate.com. Earlier this week we had an update about the world’s most powerful brand from Brandz Top 100 and once again Google passes Microsoft.

The top 5 most visited sites according to comscore,

• Google … 528 million
• Microsoft … 527 million
• Yahoo … 476 million
• Time Warner … 272 million
• eBay … 256 million

From the report,

Google had 528 million unique visitors in March, up 5 percent from the previous month, according to comScore. Microsoft had 527 million visitors during the same month, up 3.7 percent.

Google has achieved it not only because of search but also e-mail service, online maps and personalized home pages. YouTube also fetched a lot a traffic to Google. Google still trails in the amount of time global users spend on its properties: an average of 4.6 minutes compared to 12.8 minutes on Microsoft.

Despite Google’s current strength, Bowker, from Santa Clara University, emphasized that Google’s winning streak isn’t guaranteed in the future. He recalled a number of companies that once seemed invincible later faltered, including IBM and General Motors.
