Gut feeling says you're right, but their financial performance is extraordinary and based on selling not just ads, but so much more. Google Maps has literally the entire US mapped out in terms of street view, GSuite is such a bargain, GCP is up there with the three big cloud providers. I don't know what Verily life sciences is doing, there is also Waymo (no revenue), and Google X (moonshots).
- nmfisher 6y agoLast time I checked, ads were literally something like 99% of Google revenue.
- systemvoltage 6y agoI just checked, you're right. I was looking at the Alphabet revenue (parent) and 82% comes from Google Ads. Thanks for the insight.
- ElonMuskrat 6y agoAnd the other 18% is probably "non-profitable" ads e.g. YouTube.
