Google is that company that amazed us all. They have over 60% of all searches that occur online. They get a HUGE part of their revenue from Adsense and Ads that are clicked on. We all know that the keywords are getting VERY expensive. Most of the advertising budgest come from fortune 1000 companies. As the recession is lead by the comsumer, it effects the entire cycle. The financial company layoffs along with the profts being cut, advertising budgets are the first to go.

However, Google still destroys the street. Eventhough paid clicks only grew 20% year over year, they beat the numbers in all aspects. One major benefit is Google’s ability to be a player in the international space. 51% comes from international customers. Goes to show  you tech is more than fine. Intel, IBM, now Google. All great numbers.

There might be more to this than the recession. All consumers know to filter out advetising. Its natural, its a learned behavior. This is also true with all search engine “blue box” ads. Many users know that someone paid to be their, and feel that these results are not NATURAL. Many users prefer actual results done by Google that are NOT paid.
