I think this is true for all of the big orgs.
Main difference is that Google is bad at monitising any (non advertising) service; so free becomes the main proposition.
Is Meta much different though?
- jsnell 1y agoGoogle's non-advertising revenue is about $25B/quarter. There's only a handful of tech companies with higher revenue than that. It is for example a bit more than Tesla, double that of Broadcom or Oracle, a bit less than Dell or TSMC. Seems they're actually pretty good at monetizing non-ads goods and services at this point.
- lwhi 1y agoA good point, but I still think they're struggling to innovate. Their advertising revenue is over $71B/quarter. As far as I know the majority of the non advertising revenue is from Google Cloud and subscriptions for services. Most of the interesting product initiatives they've launched (that I can think of) have folded.
