The search being free is half the reason. Or maybe 1/3. The other reasons are that in plenty of cases it takes more than when I’m trying to understand something and I’m not sure what (like, today, I was trying to understand how the circuit of sewing machine pedal works) and I had to do several searches in order to figure that out since I wasn’t even sure what is the right term.
The other one is that I’m not native English speaker, and often, I search for a term in one language, then the other. Or I need to do a search, just in order to find the right term.

Monthly subscription
I fixed the previous link.
They’re supported by user subscriptions. $10 for unlimited searches.
They estimate that a Google user searches 3/4 times a day.
Whut?
I probably do 3/4 searches an hour. Including while I’m sleeping.
For the typical “average” person, that’s likely.
But the early adopting power user, looking for alternatives to Google, aren’t those “average” people.
I’m 22 days into my month, and have 688 searches so far. But when unlimited was $15, I had no real trouble staying under 300.
People search so much mainly because they’re used to free unlimited searches.
