The secret heartbeat of Google and the diversification of its product base



If you search Google news on the keyword ‘SEO’ the internet is full of so called experts second guessing what they think ranks you better, while also making sweeping statements about what Google thinks is bad.

Google is a very rare beast, a publicly owned company with a secret algorithm at its core. A secret that can make or break business and personal reputations.

So, how can a public company that influences so much be allowed to keep this a secret?

Google has the ultimate power but it’s also the ultimate democracy. People give them power by using their search but if they were to start abusing that power than in theory people could start using other services. So a competitive search environment is important in order to self-regulate the industry.

Google's come under fire recently for being to ‘big brotherish’ but as the pressure grows to continue their financial growth they may push their users too far and that could lead to their eventual downfall.

Our opinion is that Google understand the feeling in terms of user’s privacy and are therefore looking at diversification as a route to growth by moving in to operating systems and software. This diversification also increases peoples dependence on Google and ups the migration pain to almost unbearable. Although Apple is king of this tactic Google are now a close second.

Whatever the future holds one thing is for sure, Google aren't going anywhere and neither are we! While the market second guesses what Google are doing we’re able to see more clearly what’s going on due to the high volume of active campaigns we’re operating.

We recently celebrated our 3,000th active client, this enables us to monitor trends, then based on that data we engineer new unique products that help direct traffic to a website. Our quarterly service, charged at just £49.99 allows you to lock in these and any future products that we launch.
