Google is at number one, even Hollywood stars use it in their films, "google it". Why do you think so? Did google pay for this or google is such a big household term now? share your thoughts about google.
Google is a popular term, it's even in the dictonary. They did a create job branding their name and making it a household name. i actually heard on the radio a few months ago about someone who was in jail for 10 years for a crime they didn't commit and was freed when evidence came out proving it. He didn't realize how popular he was and someone told him to Google himself and he stared in stupidity, the most classic look I heard when it was showed on news reports; wish I could of seen it!
I agree with ssandecki, I think everyone is familiar with the brand we know as google even though we know there are other search engines out there most of us will turn to google before we go to another search engine.
Hollywood stars barely know how to use computers Still they do know a fancy thing called Google exists, no doubt about that.
It's definitely Google's trademark, if you have good reputation then you don't need to advertise, the customer will advertise for you.
Actually, I don't know google a lot when I was in school! All I know is yahoo. After I become an seo thats the time I become familiar by google.
"Did google pay for this or google is such a big household term now?" I think Google now don't have to pay anyone Google is just so popular these days.
