Yahoo Inc. said on August 8, that its online search engine comprises more than
20. 5 billion online objects, such as 19 billion documents and 1.5 billion images.
Meanwhile, Google said that it tracks 11.3 billion objects, in other words,
it consists in 8.2 billion pages and 2.1 billion images. That's to say that
Yahoo scans nearly double the material scanned by Google Inc (its biggest rival).

The size of index is one of the components to make a search engine to be good. The relevancy of final items and the quality of its content are sure things that must be taken into account.

It is valid to say that for the previous three-and-a-half years ago, Yahoo's search results were licensed to pass trough Google's. In that way, Google conquered its space in the internet as the best known search-engine-site. Since their split, a rough rivalry between them takes place, since search-generating business is crucial for a successful strategy of marketing.
