    Google has done a lots of changing recently in its search result and giving more preference to
    • Local Result
    • Sponsored Result
    • Related result- Brand, Store, Type.
    • Shopping result


    In Image below, you can see how maximum of result spaces are occupied by sponsored links, related result etc. The related result show only for Big brands/companies like amazon, walmart etc.

    So,
    where are the small businesses...?
    Is Google going to kill small business ?
    What shold be the strategy for small business owner to survive in Google & online market?
    Share your opinion how to work with this new Google algorithm ?

    Google must have partnered with those sites. There is no way that a small business can compete with the high authority sites. Its an impossible battle. Better focus on other related keywords instead.

    From my experience, Google is giving important to the company having lots of reviews coming from the different sources. They are big company and have lots of money to list in the big portals yearly. Now what a small company do for the local business. Google guys should think about this. The big and small companies both should be equal in the eyes of google.

    Agree on this one, so the whole experience gets more user friendly and the visitors do get what they would like to see
