Greets from GoogleGuy!

Greets from GoogleGuy!
Some other Googlers have stopped by to introduce themselves, so it seems appropriate to say hello. Many Google Blog readers may not have heard the story of how GoogleGuy got started, so forgive this bit of historical rambling.

...

Of course, I had to have an online nickname. What if I got sick, or needed to take a break? I needed a handle that someone else could step into if necessary. After not a lot of consideration, GoogleGuy seemed just right.

Search engine bowled a googly
By Robert Cole



GOOGLE’S founders, Sergey Brin and Larry Page, say they have no intention of letting their internet search company lead a conventional life. Boys, it is hard to imagine anything less conventional than allowing your firm to become embroiled in a multibillion-dollar mess a few days before you hoped to preside over the most keenly awaited IPO of the year, if not the decade.
If one was minded to be extraordinarily generous, one might say that the problems owned up to by Google yesterday were the result of an unfortunate administrative cock-up. There is nothing wrong with lining the paypackets of employees and contractors with shares or share options. For a young company eager to conserve cash it is a sensible strategy to follow. One might have thought that most employees and contractors working for a youthful, unquoted technology company would much prefer to be paid in hard cash rather than flimsy shares. Even for an outfit with the power and promise of Google, it is an achievement for the managers to swing such a cash-saving trick.



Google’s mistake was to fail to register the stock and stock options issued to the employees and contractors with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the US financial regulator. Google was obliged to do this in spite of the fact that the company was unquoted when it issued the stock and stock options.

Search engines reveal the narcissistic side of mankind!
London | August 05, 2004 4:23:04 PM IST

A survey carried out by Harris Interactive for MSN has indicated that mankind seems to be turning increasingly narcissistic with more people looking for themselves online rather than a member of their family.

NOTE: Try this Search for Bill Austin

According to the Daily Mail, 39 per cent of those queried had searched to see how well known they were on Internet, but only 29 per cent had looked up fellow family members, with 36 per cent looking for long lost friends.

The survey also showed that while a majority of the people are more curious about themselves than anyone else, many people also look for information on the net about their prospective girlfriends and boyfriends to see if they have any dark secrets.

Planning the Christmas Shopping Season

It is that time of year again folks. As far as the calendar year is concerned, the sun has passed the yardarm and the winter holiday season is approaching faster than any of us think. In the world of search engine marketing, it is time to begin planning the all important online Christmas shopping season.

Christmas is the most competitive portion of the year for E-Commerce websites. Like their cousins in the brick and mortar retail industry, the ten to twelve weeks preceding the holidays tends to comprise an enormous portion of their annual incomes.

“Paying to Play” on Search Engines Pays Off Big

“Paying to Play” on Search Engines Pays Off Big
Expert says this is the most cost effective direct marketing method.

Thousand Oaks, CA, (PRWEB) August 3, 2004 -- When most businesses think of direct marketing, paying for search engine placement doesn’t even enter their minds. According to one expert, this could be a costly mistake.

According to Entrepreneur magazine columnist Catherine Seda, paying for search engine placement is the most cost effective way to generate new leads. In a recent article, Seda wrote, “Online search is the most cost-effective direct marketing method. The average cost-per-lead from search is $0.29, far less than e-mail ($0.50), yellow pages ($1.18), banner ads ($2.00), and direct mail ($9.94).”

“On search engines,” Seda says, “buyers are looking for someone to fill their needs. In many cases they’re already in shopping mode. Companies with prominent placement in search engines will very likely acquire these new customers.”

Seda says it’s the reversal of this relationship that’s at the heart of search engine advertising’s success.


In her new book,

Search Engine Advertising
, Buying Your Way to the Top to Increase Sales (New Riders Publishing 2004), Seda writes, “Instead of advertisers broadcasting their messages to consumers, search engines let millions of consumers each day tell advertisers exactly what they want.”

According to Seda, most business owners are simply unaware of search engine advertising’s potential to grow their businesses, and even more are at a loss as to how to best utilize this marketing tool.

IHT: Search engines rev up in the race against Google

IHT: Search engines rev up in the race against Google


When it comes to Internet searching - and the advertising dollars that come with it - everyone seems to be playing catch-up with Google, the No. 1 search engine, which is preparing for an initial public offering.
.
On Tuesday, Yahoo, the owner of the second-most-used Internet search engine, said it was starting to test a service that helps consumers search for information about local businesses.
.
Ask Jeeves, another search engine, also said on Tuesday that it had formed a partnership with IAC/InterActiveCorp's Citysearch group of Web sites, to get access to information with a local business focus.
.
The moves follow Microsoft's announcement on Monday that it was aiming to make search services customized so that results would be based on individual preferences and interests.
.
"We're going to make search extremely personal," Bill Gates, Microsoft's chief, told an audience of computer science and technology researchers.
.
The emergence of search as a key technology platform for computer users in their homes and offices, driving everything from online shopping to business research, took many in the high-tech industry by surprise. But what really has caught the attention of executives who once regarded search as an afterthought has been the recent explosion of search-enabled online advertising. Microsoft, for example, though still only the No. 3 player in search, saw a 43 percent growth in online advertising in the year ended June 30, enabling its MSN business to record a profit for the first time. "Search has become the Holy Grail for Microsoft," said Gene Walton, founder of Walton Holdings, an independent equities research firm in New York. "No one expected paid search ads to make so much money. It's a new trend, and it's a trend that no one thought was going to work. That's why Microsoft avoided it. Now they want in."
.
The company is investing $100 million to enhance search on its MSN consumer Internet service alone, and millions more on multiple search efforts throughout the company.
.
At this point MSN still relies on search technology licensed from Yahoo. But that will soon be changing. Microsoft developers are readying their own back-end search technology, expected to be installed in the next six to 12 months.
.
Yahoo also is preparing for the day when Microsoft drops Yahoo's search technology and installs its own technology on its MSN site.
.
Yahoo's new local service compiles information from Yahoo's sites, including maps, local guides, yellow page phone directory listings and professional restaurant reviews. Yahoo Local is adding user comments.
.
"They are looking for ways to bring in new advertisers by training users to do local searches," said Charlene Li, an analyst with Forrester Research in San Francisco.
.
The early lead in the search business was grabbed by Google, a start-up in Mountain View, California, that was incorporated in 1998 by Sergei Brin and Larry Page, computer science graduate students from Stanford University.
.
Google, which earned $79.1 million on revenue of $700.2 million in the second quarter, according to a document filed last week in connection with its coming initial public offering, makes most of its money through "paid placement" and "contextual" ads. The former surround regular search results on Google's pages, and are related to the search topics, while the latter appear next to related content on third-party sites to which Google provides search technology.
.
Google's platform was used for 36.8 percent of searches, followed by Yahoo with 26.6 percent, MSN with 14.5 percent, and the AOL unit of Time Warner with 12.8 percent, according to a May survey by comScore Networks, a consulting company in Reston, Virginia.

.
Still, Internet search companies including Google are seeing slower growth of their sales to national advertisers, and they are developing services to offer more finely focused information. Google itself began testing its own locally focused search engine in March.
.
Yahoo saw its second-quarter revenue rise only 10 percent from the first quarter, the slowest quarter-to-quarter growth in more than a year. Google reported a similar slowdown. Its second-quarter sales rose 7.5 percent from the first quarter, compared with 27 percent growth a quarter earlier, the company said last week in a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
