Google accounted for almost 72 percent of all U.S. searches conducted during the four weeks ending November 28th 2009, according to data from Experian Hitwise.

The search giant grew its overall share of searches by one percentage point in that period, while its closest competitors in the space -- Yahoo and Microsoft's Bing -- both experienced a decline, dropping 5 percent and 2 percent respectively.

Ranked fourth, Ask.com also experienced month-over-month growth of 1 percent -- albeit from a drastically lower base -- growing from 2.62 percent in October to 2.65 percent in November.

The remaining 52 search engines monitored by Hitwise accounted for the remaining 1.07 percent of searches.
