Publisher Name | Total Clicks | Total Impressions | Total Click Charges | Total Revenue | Total Volume of Bookings | Google - Global | 72895 | 1808326 | $120,946.71 | $929,549.80 | 797 | Google - US | 192109 | 3855689 | $353,640.60 | $1,745,481.80 | 1550 | MSN - Global | 11217 | 139979 | $12,160.36 | $145,524.25 | 129 | MSN - US | 10808 | 170120 | $16,098.49 | $181,549.80 | 140 | Overture - Global | 60899 | 17898727 | $64,295.86 | $430,084.70 | 372 | Overture - US | 119323 | 17062488 | $141,976.07 | $347,433.25 | 289 | Yahoo - US | 45598 | 933345 | $46,197.82 | $882,288.95 | 662 | Grand Total | 512849 | 41868674 | $755,315.92 | $4,661,912.55 | 3939 |
From the table above, we can see the total clicks, impressions, click charges, revenue and volume of bookings each publisher in Air France’s SEM campaign. Google-US produced the highest revenue, bookings and total clicks, but also cost the most. Overture has the highest number of impressions, but does not produce the highest revenue or volume of bookings. Publisher Name | CPC | CTR | TCR | Take Rate | ROA | Google - Global | $1.66 | 4.03% | 1.09% | 0.04% | $6.69 | Google - US | $1.84 | 4.98% | 0.81% | 0.04% | $3.94 | MSN - Global | $1.08 | 8.01% | 1.15% | 0.09% | $10.97 | MSN - US | $1.49 | 6.35% | 1.30% | 0.08% | $10.28 | Overture - Global | $1.06 | 0.34% | 0.61% | 0.00% | $5.69 | Overture - US | $1.19 | 0.70% | 0.24% | 0.00% | $1.45 | Yahoo - US | $1.01 | 4.89% | 1.45% | 0.07% | $18.10 | Average | $1.33 | 4.19% | 0.95% | 0.05% | $8.16 |

    In 2013, Google was the leading Internet search engine with the majority of the market share in search from home and work computers and nearly 97% from mobile devices (Gamble, Peteraf, & Thompson, 2013). Its popularity rose partly due to the ease of internet searches made available from their business model. As the author states, “ Google’s business model allowed advertisers to bid on search terms that would describe their product or service on a cost-per-impression (CPI) or cost-per-click (CPC) basis” (Gamble, et al, 2015, p. 315). Acquiring new business operations continued to allow Google to sustain its competitive advantage and extraordinary growth in revenues, earnings, and net profit provided by these operations (Gamble, et al, 2015). Introducing the Cloud, a virtual database afforded the company to continue expounding its profit formula linked to its business model (Gamble, et al, 2015). The company's CEO, Eric Schmidt viewed these new ventures as an opportunity to “organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful” (Gamble, et al, 2015, p. 315).…

    Industry Background Search engine companies haven’t been around for very long with most of them coming into existence in the mid 1990’s. Many of these companies are already gone or in a state of gobbling each other up to compete with the bigger companies. Yahoo seems to be the grandfather of the currently existing crop starting in 1994. The growth in Internet usage and the amount of data being made available has made accurately and quickly finding that data more important. The search companies and search engine strategies have become very important to webmasters and company marketing strategies due to the desire of companies to have their products and services appear at the top of the list and on the most used search sites. The methodologies that a company uses for searching is highly confidential. Some search companies get its search crawler data from Google, for instance Yahoo did this for a while and now AOLSearch is “enhanced” by Google. The companies earn their money in a variety of ways but primarily it is paid advertising that is the bread and butter of this industry. Google, Inc. Background Google Inc. has gone from literally a garage company started in 1998 by two Stanford University computer science graduate students, Sergey Brin and Larry Page, to a forward thinking firm that employs over 10,000 people today. The two actually met in 1995 and began formulating their initial ideas on searching which they tried to sell. When no interest was garnered for it, they decided to form Google and presented their search methods at a World Wide Web conference in 1998 and by 1999 had $30 million in funding from a variety of means. Google went public in 2004 raising $1.6 billion. Google is so “big” it has become a new word in the English language meaning; to search for information on the Internet, esp. using the…

    That November, Google’s engineers modified their search engine’s algorithms, an update later dubbed “Florida” by the search-engine community. 2bigfeet’s rankings dropped abruptly just before the Christmas selling season, and this Internet success story was suddenly on the brink of bankruptcy.2 Search engines have established themselves as critical gatekeepers of information. However, despite an increasingly monopolistic Internet search market, they and the implicit filtering process in their rankings remain largely beyond public scrutiny and control. This has inspired us to explore an increasingly topical question: Should search-engine ranking be regulated? Search engines generally work by indexing the Web through so-called crawler programs. When a user types in a request, search algorithms deter-…
