Will Google’s Monopoly Ever End? – November 2016

Changing Tides November 2016

With a 65% share of the global Internet search engine market, it is easy to characterize Google as a monopoly. And with Google’s recent elimination of right hand paid ads, they have pushed down natural search results, making it more necessary to buy Google AdWords.

But, fear not. The number of search engine alternatives is expanding. Microsoft’s Bing (now a 20% share) for example, offers a superior image and video search functionality. DuckDuckGo does not retain your search data so Big Brother can’t spy on you. Quora provides you a more personalized response. Yahoo! delivers an eclectic mix of news, ads and click-bait. So if you’re ready for another point of view, open a new window and explore the other side of search.
