Google Blow Past Wall Street Expectation.
Not only is the Internet-leading search engine, Google Inc. has a knack for serving up the information people wants, it keeps giving what Wall Street ask for, delivering pleasant earnings surprise in all but one of 11 quarters since going public in August.
Reporting massive quarterly financial gains Thursday, Google post a net income of US$1 billion in the first quarter of 2007, up from $592 million in the first quarter of 2006, a 69 percent increase in first-quarter profit, and blowing past Wall Street's expectations.
Google's strong growth stands in sharp contrast to that of Yahoo, which earlier this week announced that sales had increased 7 percent from the year-ago quarter, while profits dropped 11 percent.
"The thing that is very difficult for Google's competitors is that, in the consumer mind, Google owns the brand -- Google is synonymous with search," Sterling said. "Google has continued to invest very aggressively in search, and that's a hard thing for its competitors because it has a lot of money and is aggressive on defending its core business. I don't think anyone else, even Microsoft
In March, Google processed 3.5 billion search requests in the United States, translating into a 48 percent share of the overall market, according to comScore Media Metrix. Sunnyvale-based Yahoo was a distant second, processing 2 billion search requests, or 27.7 percent of the U.S. market.
With last year's $1.76 billion acquisition of online video leader YouTube Inc. and its recently announced $3.1 billion deal to buy Internet ad distributor DoubleClick Inc., Google is expected to become an even more dominant force in that business.
Although Google has been trying to develop other revenue channels beyond the Internet, online advertising continues to produce virtually all of its profits.
"The global growth of our core search and ads business, and our focus on building our partnerships drove our strong results in the quarter," Eric Schmidt, the CEO of Google, said in the report.
"We continued to expand our worldwide footprint, adding important new partners and growing our platform to increase our ability to deliver targeted and measurable ads.
"The ongoing expansion of our network allows us to improve the user experience through new opportunities and programs."

What is the Key to Success in Money Making Online?
"What is the Key to Success in Money Making Online?"
That was a topic raised in my phone conversation with a friend last night, a keen zhineng qigong student and a ebay marketer. We come to the same answer - "Consistent and Continuous Effort"
Very much like learning QiGong. We learnt that ordinary folks with critical illness could make remarkable recovery through consistent practice of QiGong.
"Continuous effort - not strength or intelligence - is the key to unlocking our potential." in the words of the late Sir Winston Churchchil, 1874-1965, Former British Prime Minister.

How to Finally Get Started at Money Making Online
About half a year ago I Don’t Know What Business To Start Making Money Online, but I am full of idea and plenty of Information and I wish I Only Would Pick One!
Ahh, yes I had become a serial information chaser, attending seminars, collecting notes, ebooks and dvds.. . One day while spring cleaning, I found over 500 pages of notes, some cds and dvds from seminars I had been attending, all collecting dust.
Fact is, I found out I am not alone. I learnt from some guys I met at the seminars that they too share the same issue.
If you are still reading my blog then I guess you are one of us too. Anyway, I here's what I did and hopefully it will finally set you off in the right direction.
Firstly I suggest you stop and go through the information you have, what you have learnt and pick out one thing you can immediately apply. List out what is holding you back. Then put in an action plan. The word is ACTION.
For me. I found the information I have gathered is so piece meal and its like trying to put a big jig saw puzzle together. It is also the reason why many people never get started. I figure it will take a long time to get there and I don't have much time to waste. I need a step-by-step action guide.
A friend of mine paid US$3000 to be hand hold by a guru. It is working for for him, it better be for that price. However not many people could afford this, well at least not for me.
So I started searching..and here is what I have found all in one place.
It is a "One Stop Money Making Online Know How" that takes you and your website from Zero to Hero.
A friend guessed that I would have paid at least a thousand bucks for all these..but nope I did not.
It is a real bargain. I got me started and here I am.
The best part is I can immediately put some of what I learnt immediately to work, like this blog for instance and more..
So, what I have been talking about? SiteSell.
Well check it out. It could shorten your path to Money Making Online as it did for me.
A thousand words can only paint a picture, so allow me to show you something that is worth a million words.
Here's a video that kinda of sums up what I been doing...
If you are experiencing low connection, press pause and let the video load up and go grap yourself a cup of coffee and some cookies. It will be ready to play when you are come back ..

Money Making Online - My Journey Out
Well here it is my first blog tracking my journey on the Silk Road of Money Making Online, documenting the stuff that works and what does not and perhaps one day I could look back at how I started from Zero to Hero.
My name's Steve Tang, the man from little red dot, Singapore - know for durian, chili crap, world class airline with beautiful girls making sure you have a great way to fly. (Guys.. its not what you think.)
There is so much stuff out there and sometimes its hard to distinguish the real from the fluff.
So if you find my rambling on some of the crap out there, it just probably one of those bad day on the net. Hopefully this will serve as a beckon to avoid hit those "rocks" so that you will have a smoother money making journey online.
More importantly I hope the knowledge I gathered here will become a reference for opportunities to money making online.
God bless all everyone and let us make good money together.
