How does Google make money?

    Just wondering how Google makes money with advertisement because they never disclose what percentage they get or charge anyone whether advertiser or publisher.

    Isn't that shady?

    Also when Google refuses to pay people they ban, i know they say they will refund the money back to advertisers but i kind of think they probably pocket the money sometimes, i mean not saying everytime but i believe sometimes they probably do because who the hell will find out? and how?

    Please share your thoughts

    Well I guess it impossible to know how Google makes money. I am sure that Google gets a sizeable amount from advertisers.

    They sell many information to companies as well. Google collects everything and turn them to cash.

    Did you know that Google is the second most recognized 'brand' in the World?

    Not only with Ads, they for sure make money doing deals with large multinational corporations
    on the side.

    That also makes me wonder... Whatever happened to the Google phone?

    Search the net. They regularly disclose it.

    No, you are shady. And that's why you were banned.

    Google has thousands of employees. Some of them quit every day.

    If Google were pocketing money, one of the people who quit throughout all these years would have gone public with this information.

    Don't blame Google for your failure to play by the rules and use the system honestly.

    I'm sure they have other sources of revenue but advertising is probably there main income.

    you guys don't understand what i am saying.
    See google doesn't specify if they charge advertisers when advertising and they don't say they take any percentage off of publishers.

    So why is that all secret when we all know they cash out over billions of dollars.
    Where are they getting their money from?
    Is there a specific source on this?

    As far as I can see, almost everyone here understands what you are saying, they just don't think it makes a lot of sense.

    http://investor.google.com/ - you can find lots of stats in their annual report and other documents.

    Just because some information didn't fall out of the sky and hit you on the head doesn't mean there's a conspiracy to keep it a secret.
