Secret of Google Success!
David C. Drummond, Google's Vice President, Corporate
Development, according to him there are four factors as the key to
Google's success:
- Technology: Along with its innovative approach to page
ranking, Google is a purpose-built hardware company, building all
its own servers from components it buys directly for their
manufacturers. According to Drummond, Google now operates the
world's largest distributed computer system.
- Business Model Innovation: By perfecting the nature of
targeted ads, Google not only has created a highly effective
revenue generator, it has produced what it hopes to be a better
experience for its users. It is Google's goal to make their
targeted ads at least as relevant and useful to users as the
search results themselves.
- Brand: According to Drummond, a European study recently
determined Google to be the number one most recognized worldwide
brand. Indeed, Google has become a verb ("I can't wait to get home
and Google him") which poses real challenges to a company seeking
to protect the strength of its mark.
- Focus on the User Experience: Product decisions at
Google are driven by optimizing for the user experience first and
for revenue second. The folks at Google firmly believe that the
better the user experience, the more easily money will follow.
