Well Google has said they dont want to become a portal. Just a search engine. As for time on the site that can be looked at different ways..... With google having less time on the site per visitor couldnt that mean Google is converting their traffic better because people are clicking the ads and going to the site they are looking for faster? Now it is different with CPM though like Yahoo and others use. But I think Google is monetizing their traffic perfect and the avg time spent on the site doesnt really matter because you are comparing CPC and CPM sites.
Let's revisit this comment in 12 months. Google stock is currently at 564.30 and we are in an economic melt down. Fed interest rates are dropping and the real estate market is starting year two of the doldrums.
yep, u just use google and then go to other sites, google is not like face book, where u spend time on only one site
i am really glad to see that Google ain't that powerfull as many of us may think, however to get the picture clear those stats are taken only from USA UV ? If i am not wrong ?
