Boston, MA 10/14/2013 (wallstreetpr) – Google Inc is undeniably one of the leaders of the Internet world today. Since their launch, they have made their names and have stayed a dominant champion in the game. However, Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB) is now striving to make its name synonymous to number one over Google. Facebook has already established its name in the Internet business and is undoubtedly the biggest competitor that Google Inc has. In West and Asian regions, Google seems to have the upper hand. However, Facebook does have a lead on the market in North Africa, Spanish speaking regions and The Middle East. On a more global scale, Facebook is more dominant as well.
Given the size of Facebook’s following, it is very strange that their IPO launch in 2012 did not yield the level of results that were expected. The positive feedback was not seen until 2013. This is a bit difficult to comprehend as researchers have found that on a global level, based on samples from 50 countries, Facebook was the most visited site in the world. They were followed closely by Google. Across the world, more people opted to visit Facebook and Google more than any other site.
It is still a struggle on Facebook Inc’s part however to translate these visits to their website into money. The company has had a rough go at it for quite some time but it seems as if 2013 will be the turnaround year for them. The true source of their success is the campaigns that they have launched for mobile ads. This is translating well for them in terms of visits to money but in regards to stock, they have quite a bit more work to do. Facebook is still lagging behind Google Inc in this aspect. That is mostly due to the fact that Google has been trading publicly for longer. Facebook, and Google, have changed the playing field for the Internet and things are not expected to get anything but better anytime soon.
