Google is an advertising company.. not a search engine


sort by: page size:

Except of course Google is not a search engine company, Google is an advertising company

Google is an advertising company with a monopoly on a specific native ad type called "search ads"

Google is not a search engine. Google is an advertising platform. It's 2022 and people do not know this yet?

Google is an ad company with negligible business success outside of ad-tech. This should be clear by now for everybody.

Google are an ad company not a technology company

Okay, get off your moral high ground. Google is an advertitizing company. I fail to see how they are any different than a broadcast network or Facebook for that matter. You put out a product and make money off of ads. “Information services to make the world a better place” are you really serious? Does everyone at Google drink the Kool-Aid this hard?

You know who should be proud of themselves for working at a company that doesn’t make money off of people’s private information, and is actually creating cutting edge technology and services that people just pay for? Amazon. Amazon has made the world a better place than Google and Facebook put together.


Google is an ad company. Not a software company.

*Google is an ad search engine.

Google == advertising company Google != search engine

Google is an advertising company. It has been for a good while.

These things do not need to be mutually exclusive. Google has an advertising platform on top of a search engine.

Google Search and Ads must be split apart. Their incentive to serve you ads is just way too high. Their search results became completely irrelevant over time. But still can screw any competition.

Google's corporate mission is to sell advertising.

Google is an advertising company

“Google minus ads” is not a strategy with a great record of success.

Google is an advertising company.

Google is an advertising company.

Google is an ad company, but search is their foremost product, unlike social media.

Google is in the advertising business not in Philantropy.
