Google: Behind the Screen

As I said before, there have been a few changes going around at Google, changes that could impact ANYONE… whether you use Adsense, Adwords, Gmail, Google Earth, Google Book Search, Google Calendar, or any of their services.

I use Google a LOT! And, I use a LOT of their services, probably like many of you. But as an individual, a business owner, an entrepreneur - I’m not a fan of LARGE monopoly type businesses, of ANY type. Anyway…

Something that has happened recently is, Google is now looking at advertisers landing pages, and deciding whether or not the “user experience” is worthy of a visitor.

So, if you happen to have a subscription form on that landing page and you’re trying to get newsletter signups, whether it be a “squeeze page” technique or just a content page that’s asking for subscribers, your ad listing or cost per click ‘COULD’ be affected.

Now, I’m not saying that I’m going to stop using Google, or their services… nor should you. I just think that we should ‘THINK’ more sometimes before we hand over the keys to the kingdom to anyone… big business or government.

I do LOVE the Internet, and this is a very good example why…

I have just finished watching a video documentary on Google. The video is only about 46 minutes 58 seconds long, AND it’s VERY GOOD, but this could have very easily been a one an a half to two hour documentary if it were on TV.

To watch, the Google: Behind The Screen Video, click here.

You will, or at least you should, want to watch it.

Grab a pen and paper because there’s lots of little things you will learn about Google, how they view things, and where they are headed with their view of how the Internet should be (which may not match up with what you would like it to be)… and you’ll learn exactly what business Google is really in.

Leave me your comments, I’m curious what you think, after you have watched the video.
