Marketing Pilgrim: Google’s Russian Monopoly Begins with Acquisition of Begun

  • Fifty Studio · 1 year ago
    The problem is that Russia is corrupt beyond belief. After the fall of communism there a lot of wealthy people came in and took over utilities and many other hi dollar businesses. It will be interesting to see how business pans out for Google in that country.

    Corrupt or not, what a good purchase for Google. They now have the only company in Russia supplying ads to a rapidly growing advertising medium. Sounds pretty good to me. Can I buy more google?

    The local hires by Google will ensure that they survive in the so called corrupt system.

    Corrupt or not its another country that Google is acquiring market share with, its the world wide web and that means that Google must control the world to control the web.

    There are clearly a lot of extremely rich individuals in Russia and corruption may have played a part in them. Nonetheless, what interests me more is the extent of internet access to the working man over there, what sort of coverage do they have?

    Google keeps on gobbling them up. Bet they wish they could make inroads like this into the Chinese market. Their intent is clear however. Asia WILL eventually fall to the might og Google....
