The research on Google search

There is a interesting news about Google on the BBC News web site. In this research it is claimed that Google favours it’s own service rather then what is most searched for, making the search results biased towards Google. This is something that Google denies. But checking for this on my own I found that the claim holds true.

The claim is as follows on the BBC News.

Under a search for „e-mail“, for example, the study found that Google’s top result is its own Gmail service – despite the fact that almost twice as many people searching the site subsequently clicked on the second result, Yahoo Mail.

Here is my own result on the matter.

As people can see, the claim did uphold this simple test that I did do here.

In my own personal experience I found out that Google is extremely boring and annoying company to deal with. Specially when it comes to service that they provide, as often support is poor and often none. But that is going to be written about later.
