    Bing is bigger than CNN, Digg, Twitter? Not so fast!

    Compete shows that Bing’s unique users in June 09 is bigger than Twitter, CNN, and Digg.

    This is not because people are voluntarily going to Bing.com.  It is because Microsoft redirected all traffic from live.com and search traffic (results pages) from msn.com to bing.com.

    This is what it looks like when a site changes domain names and redirects all rtraffic from the old site.  By next month Compete will show the same “X” for Live.com vs Bing.com

    Already starting to see the decline of traffic from live.com which is entirely redirected to bing.com
