- jeffbee 4y agoGoogle said in their last Zeitgeist (2012) that they served 1.2 trillion search queries that year, and in the same year they reported $30 billion revenue from their own sites. In 2021 they reported $150 billion in "Search & other" revenue which is categorically similar. In real dollars that's a quadrupling of traffic, so you can conclude they might have served 4-5 trillion queries in 2021.
