Hello MHB,
(Google revenue hurt by rising dollar) , This Media Soaked Misconception should Read = Google Revenue hurt by selling out .COM subcribers who comprise their base. GOOGLE is in a Cache 22, in that they game their largest Subscriber Base with Traffic Dilution to their .COM subscribers Disadvantage. These are the real truths, not Media Hype. Take it from our 100+ years in Marketing Analysis. GOOGLEs Monopolistic Dominance is Flagging Cautionary Fundamental Signs of the end of their Monopoly Grip both here and Abroad. JAS 4/23/15

You do know Google doesn’t have subscribers right ? They don’t run Dot Com or ICANN.

“Take it from our 100+ years in Marketing Analysis”
How old are you?
If we are just talking about search, Google is not a monopoly, they are dominate with a 67% or so share in the US but in China they are banned and in other counties like Russia for example Yandex has a 70% market share so they don’t have a worldwide monopoly on search and don’t even win in every market.
Of course Google just won .search which maybe a big deal or no deal depending on what they do with it
Google is a dominate player in mobile space as well but Apple leads.
Google Glass seemed to be a bust but the Apple watch is sold out.

You have something in common with all the Presidential candidates. For the record Google is only 17 years old not even legal to drink!
“Anyhow We are too busy to joust on unspecifics. “
@Mike, DomainShame, others – You do realize that Metal Tiger is the Domain Industry’s equivalent of those BS Buzzword Generator websites, right?
MHB, i lost some brain cells reading Jeff’s comments.
You owe me at least 2 mins of my life back 🙂

“Google finished the 1Q with $65.436 billion in cash.”, however it is a big amount. Instead of ranking, paid search advertisements are booming for quick start.
