Thanks Joe! :)

Hi Joe,

Indeed it does. If I remember correctly, when I wrote the article, I took the 85% statistic directly from the report so it could be that I no longer have the correct link to my source.

You can also visit:

1. http://www.studio2online.co.uk/products/search-engine-promotion/searchenginepromotion.php

2. http://ezinearticles.com/?SEO-Vs-PPC&id=1227341

3. http://www.streetdirectory.com/travelguide/5726/marketing/absolutetopfivesearchenginemarketingmythsuncovered.html

that also show the 85% statistic.

Alternatively, I'd love to have some more current and tantalizing data. As a Wharton grad you may be able to come up with some more recent stats and share then with the group as well as your sources. :)

Best regards, Patrice

Hi Joe,

I got the 85% figure from the Graphics, Visualization & Usability (GVU) Center User Study. You can check out the link here http://www-static.cc.gatech.edu/gvu/user_surveys/survey-1998-10/graphs/use/q52.htm

Let me know if that link does not work for you.

Thanks, Patrice
