You just need to know what you are searching for.

Google

What does Google mean?

Google is an internet search engine. It uses a proprietary algorithm that’s designed to retrieve and order search results to provide the most relevant and dependable sources of data possible.

CEO, and former Chairman of Google Eric Schmidt with cofounders Sergey Brin and Larry Page.

Google’s stated mission is to “organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful.” It is the best search engine in the world. Google is so dominant that the term “Google” can also be used as a verb.

Google’s algorithm was patented and named PageRank. The current search technology is based on some of these principles.

Although the Google corporation has since branched out to provide many other products beyond search, the search engine is still Google’s most popular service. Google is an American company that is most commonly known as a search engine.

Recently the company moved into the mobile hardware market by creating its first Google phone, called Pixel.

The domain google.com was registered on September 15/1997, the company incorporated on September 4/1998.
