== Company Profile ==
Google Inc. is a U.S. public corporation, first incorporated as a privately held corporation in September, 1998, that designs and manages the Internet Google search engine.

== Research Questions ==
 
*[[How did the idea for Google came up?]]
*[[How did Google start with finance?]]
*[[How does Google gain revenue?]]
*[[How does Google handles privacy issues?]]
*[[Is Google a stabile company at the moment?]]
This is actually a very interesting question. Everyone is aware of the fact that Google is very big and earns a lot of money. This was also visible when Google went public at the end of 2004. Google’s stock boomed from $80 till around $450. The problem is that Google is still a relative new company and is fully dependent on advertisements. At the moment Google is financial healthy, but the market stock isn’t stable. There are two problems with the current stock. The first problem is that the price is quiet unrealistic. If the price remains above the $400 it is possible that the stock will be divided in smaller stocks. The second problem is the enormous movement of the stock related to news about Google. This also shows that investors don’t see Google as a stabile company. In February 2006 the CFO wasn’t completely optimistic about the future of Google which resulted in a drop of 16%.<br><br>
 
*[[What is Google&#8217;s core business?]]
The core business of Google is in the &#8216;online service field&#8217; and provides a freely accessible online search service. It allows users to search through all public available web pages by the use of keywords. The search results are shown in a list which is clickable and redirects the user to the specific web page. <br><br>
*[[What are Google' s additional businesses?]]
The core business of Google expanded a lot over the last few years. Probably
the most well known addition to Google are the &#8216;Google Ads. Google Ad-sense offers a contextual advertising solution to web publishers consisting of text-based Google AdWords ads that are relevant to site content pages.<br>
Google introduced the google toolbar, the email service &#8216;G-mail&#8217;, a translation service for web pages, launched a &#8216;news&#8217; web page and is developing &#8216;Froogle&#8217; which is a web-shop version of Google.<br><br>
*[[How many hits does Google generate a day?]]
Based on the Alexa rankings of the top ten most visited websites, Google is
at this moment in time in third place. It is the most frequently used search
engine and has around 300 million hits a day!<br> http://www.fromvision2design.nl/iib/visitors.JPG<br><br>
*[[Where are they operating in the world?]]
Google is accessible from any place in the world where a internet connection is available. The amount of different languages is expanding but it is not (yet) available for all languages.
 
* [[Who are Google' s competitors (Core Business and General)?]]
* [[What are the sizes of Google' s competitors (Current)?]]
* [[How many employees does Google have?]]
* [[What are the strongly related businesses with Google where they are NOT active in yet?]]
* [[What is Google' s business strategy?]]
 
* [[Is Google a centralized or decentralized company?]]
* [[Is Google dependent on other companies and/or partnerships?]]
* [[Why is Google involved in so many ‘markets segments’?]]
* [[How is the working environment within Google?]]
