Google – number one on your scorecards and number one in your hearts

July 18, 2006 – 2:09 pm

Say what you want about Google, but they’re still ruling search engine traffic in a big way. Despite what you may hear around the internet, more people than ever are using Google, indicating pleasure in their search results.

Good news for anyone who gets traffic from search engines, the report indicates that search volume was up 30% overall in the latest quarter.

Search is going up. Google still dominates search. If you want to do well in search engine marketing, you need to cater to Google. Sort of keeps the whole webmaster community in the same space they’ve been in for years.

Every day, non-Google traffic becomes even more essential for websites who hope to thrive on the ever-increasingly commercial web.
