Google is officially worth $100 billion!
Monday, May 4th, 2009
Who doesn’t know the search engine giant, which has become the biggest name – yes you got it right, we’re talking about Google Inc.
There was a time when nobody ever thought that Google will make it so big, and possibly surpass the biggest names in the business, including the legendary Microsoft Corporation!
Starting with the search engine, Google has entered virtually every other field in the market, including that of cell phones and web browsers last year! No wonder, with all this Google has managed to surpass Microsoft in terms of revenues by over 15% margin. But, the biggest deal is that today Google has been officially declared to be worth $100 billion, which is a distinguished feat that even Microsoft has not been able to conquer.
With Google Chrome browser, as well as the Google Android phone - the T1, Google has made the intentions very clear that it must not be counted only amongst the search engine masterminds, but rather a billion dollar all rounder!
Apple on the other hand is awaiting the download of the 1 billionth app from the App store, but it has still not been able to surpass the financial status of Google. As a matter of fact, they’re far from the $100 billion mark, while Microsoft is creeping up the ladder, approaching the $85 billion mark.
Google makes a good chunk of its revenues from its popular advertising programs like Adsense, and they’ve also introduced the Ad manager and other similar upcoming programs.
Well sure thing, Google doesn’t stop at one thing, whether you look at the Google Doodles or their constant advances in the market. Nobody really knows what Google is really targeting after being estimated worth $100 billion already!
