As long as they can keep their stock price high then they will never fall, money talks in business and right now they seem to have it. Where did "GOOG" close yesterday and do you know their market capitalization? GOOG Google Inc (NASDAQ NM) 4/15/2005 Last: 185.00 Change: -6.45 Open:190.10 High: 190.34 Low: 184.66 Volume: 11,584,500 Percent Change: -3.37% P/E Ratio: 126.71 52 Week Range: 95.96 to 216.80 After Hours Trading 4/15/2005 6:28:00 PM Last: 186.3875 Change: +1.3875 Volume: 228,064
When the stock hits $5.00 then you know they are in trouble If you think it is going to $5.00 you could always make a fortune by "selling the stock short". If you would have shorted Yahoo at $250.00 you could have covered your short a $7.00 and made a fortune during the dot com bubble
Strangely, I do understand this language as an ex banker and from trading on my own account, but many I imagine will find this complete gibberish.
Its unfair, google earns money form newbie advertisers and big advertisers that spend money on ads to lower their taxes, both just make ad place unaviliable to midle advertisers. Is somwhere in google something about users? as google stated? 1. Focus on the user and all else will follow. Yeah, like google focus on cash and rest follow. and i doubt what google stated and all others like "beta" for two years. and "We never manipulate rankings to put our partners higher in our search results." besides when they cloaked their own pages And "No one can buy better PageRank" hahahahaha What they are doing: lying to customers or lying to themselfs and customers? I think that first one. Msn is better. Their honestly stated on advertising pages: that their aim is to serve ads in face of customers. BTW. How they can lie like: it's all about resultsTM and Focus on the user and all else will follow. Ha, i'll trade mark "Focus on the user and all else will follow." or every of their philosophy slogans. That would be cool, "Ten things Google has found to be true" yeah, it is true but they do something else then they stated so how do you call it? i call them hypocrites. And colors of their search engine sucks. Msn's are better. I don't know if you know but google ads that looks almost exactly like google results ware aimed to one: make more people click on ads. and that sucks, second: their ads are almost or same size as results, and are sorrounded by a lot of white space, and thats what is more pleasures to look at, and thats what people look at more often you got free adsense CTR improve tip, now. Look at some results with google ads and results on msn ads, do it seems to you that google results are messed and ads ordered? I see it this way, and on msn ads and results looks ordered. Its just painfull to use google. SeeYa in California
szynka...sounds like you got banned Until there is something better, Google is the best. period. When yahoo comes out, i'll be there the first day to see what kind of CTR and net cash flow I can get...but in the end, money is more important than whether it says Ads by Yahoooooo or Ads by Gooooogle
Actually the reason that Google’s P/E ratio and stock is so high and that they are unstoppable (IMHO) in the near future and their business model and technology allow them to economically sell and service every small business in the world. Never before have local mom and pop companies been able to access an international trillion dollar marketplace with zero barriers to entry, with no upfront costs, measurable ROIs and with simple technology. It’s an economic fact that small businesses spend collectively 1000 times more on marketing and advertising than the Fortune 1000. Google has built a business that is designed to cater to that market. In the recent past, you had to have a huge ad/marketing budget to get the attention of the media outlets or to get access to distribution channels. This is no longer the case. Microsoft, Yahoo and the secondary portals are all beginning to recognize this and are scrambling to address the “real market.†I’ve been there. In the late 90’s and early 2000’s I negotiated portal deals with all of the players (except for Google) and I can tell you that back then there was no way for a small business to EVER be able to participate in the game. Trash Google all you want but at the end of the day we’re all going to benefit from their leveling of the playing field.
Localized search, mobile devices, most of the planet is NOT online... none of the big 3 are going anywhere. Its the banks that should be watched, I keep getting stung in all directions.
