Management in Action
Google’s Strategy for Dominance
“We don’t talk about our strategy … because it’s strategic. I would rather
have people think we’re confused than let our competitors know what we’re
going to do.”
—Larry Page, Google Co-founder
Sergey Brin and Larry Page met at Stanford University in 1995 when both
were graduate students in computer science. At the time, Page was working
on a software-development project designed to create an index of websites
by scouring sites for key words and other linkages. Brin joined him on the
project, and when they were satisfied that they’d developed something with
commercial value, they tried to license the technology to other search
companies. As luck would have it, they couldn’t find a buyer and settled
instead for procuring enough investment capital to keep refining and testing
their product.
In 2000, Brin and Page ran across a discussion of a business model based
on the concept of selling advertising in the form of sponsored links and
search-specific ads. They adapted it to their own concept and went into
business for themselves. They named their new venture Google and, as you
probably know, it has grown to become the world’s largest search engine.
Google generally processes more than 11,300 million searches a month by a
user base of 380 million people in 181 different countries and using 146

languages. Following an IPO in 2004, the company’s market capitalization rose
steadily; it stood at more than $243 65 billion by 2012, when Google controlled
66.7 percent of the U.S. search market (compared to Yahoo!’s 12.1 percent and
Microsoft’s 16.3 percent).
Google, however, is much more than a mere search engine. Services include
searches for news, shopping, local businesses, interactive maps, and discussion
groups, as well as blogs, web-based e-mail and voice mail, and a digital photo-
management system. You can access the results of any Google search from the
Google website, from your own user’s toolbar, from your Windows taskbar, and
from wireless devices such as smartphones and tablets. Amazingly, Google
estimates that 15 percent of searches conducted each day are new—never
having been searched before.
How did two young computer scientists build this astoundingly successful
company, and where will they take it in the future? Brin and Page remain in
the forefront of Google’s search for technological innovations. They believe in
the power of mathematics and have developed unique algorithms for just
about every form of activity in the firm. One of the most successful is an
algorithm for auctioning advertising placements that ensures the highest
possible prices. Brin and Page have also been remarkably successful in
attracting talented and creative employees and providing them with a work
environment and culture that foster the kind of productivity and innovation for
which they were hired.
Finally, although the founders avoid formal strategic planning, they’ve
managed to diversify extensively through acquisitions and key alliances.
Typically, Google absorbs an acquired firm and then improves on its technology,

Sergey Brin and Larry Page, founders of Google, spend much of their time planning and
developing new strategies. When they bought YouTube, they made the announcement in a
YouTube video.
