Everyone said that AI was going to kill Google search, but take a look below. Everything is flying at Google and their stock price just reached a record high. Google just reported their quarterly results and everything is doing unbelievably well.
Year on year, the revenue increased 22% and revenue from their core business, which is search was up an amazing 19%. Google reported to their market that the amount of search queries is at a record high, which comes to show, and I was telling people this, that their strategy of embedding the AI overviews into Google search results was a stroke of genius.
More and more people are searching for what they want and the way that the AI overviews are showing really just shows that people are loving the way that it comes out and they can get the results quicker than ever before. Now what this shows us and what we've been telling people, don't believe the hype there. More and more people are still searching on Google every single day.
So it's still the time and even more so to be investing in Google Ads and obviously in SEO. This is an amazing snapshot and it just tells you everything that you have to know. Search is flying and you still have to be involved in it heavily if you have a business that wants to grow.
