On the heels of surpassing the $200 billion mark in market value (which by the way is more than the combined value of News Corp, Disney, Viacom and CBS), Google amassed nearly 4 billion search queries in September, according to the latest report from Nielsen Online.
That's 54 percent of all online queries conducted at the top U.S. search providers. Yahoo! Search is second with 1.4 million (19.5 percent).
So, as Google's influence continues to expand, here are a few practical tips to help your business tap into the wealth of services offered by the search giant:
- Sign up to receive Google News Alerts for your company, competitors and industry.
- Create custom Google Maps of your headquarters to post online, and send in emails.
- Research and monitor discussions and trends in the social media world through Google Blog Search and Google Groups.
- Launch a pay-per-click campaign with Google AdWords.
- Submit your Website to be indexed by Googlebot.
