I think their products a re top-notch,search engine,adsense,gmail,g+, plus it is more secure to use chrome than Firefox.Obviously their raw advertising power adds to their advantage.
simply, there is no competition, so it's like Google is the only search engine, or a synonym of search engine.
I think because of the simple UI and amazing results it has become what it is right now. You can see yahoo, it's so messed up. Google is so clean.
I remember when I started using internet for the first, I only knew a handful of websites. Google, yahoo, and rediff. (In 2000 I think). Google has earned this position for themselves. When I use google, I feel as if google it is inside my brain and shows me exactly what I want. Today google is a synonym to 'search'. There were others too before. There was yahoo search, bing and others but they could never compete with google in terms of its quality of content. They have survived and progressed because they believe in innovation. They impress everyone with their products and services.
