Many Wall Street analysts’ ever predicted Google earnings will greatly decrease because of turmoil in the US economy, but the truth is quite different.

Google reported $5.54 billion in revenue for third-quarter, which represented a 31 percent increase over the same period last year. Net income was more than $1.5 billion. Google’s second-quarter revenue increased 31 percent to $5.54 billion, up from $4.23 billion for the equivalent period in 2007.

Here are some graphs showing Google earnings on Third-quarter 2008.

So now one thing is clear, that is, no matter how bad the global economy is, Google will still be the Internet’s juggernaut in both power and profits, this can’t be changed.

Congratulation to Google!

Today when I got up I noticed that Google Page Rank (Google PR) was updating again! Just as Mr. Matt Cutts predicted. Generally, Google updates PR every 3 months, but this time, it updates more frequently, some say Google is changing their algorithm, they need to test it, so they have to update Google PR more frequently. Anyway, this is not what we are concerning.

The bad news to me is some of my sites’ PRs decrease, don’t know what exactly happened on them, but I think there must be a good reason for Google to do that. I always have good impression on Google and their services, so I won’t complain on my PRs.

One thing is still for sure, that is, Google is still penalize those sites selling anchor links. As before, I don’t think this is a good action for Google, you know, selling links is a good marketing on internet, Google wants to change it, it may destory Google by doing this, so Google needs to be careful. Why do I say this? The reason is, anchor link is a paradox, Google says incoming links should be natural and related achor links, but how can we tell what is natural links, what is not? This is a paradox. Hope Google will realize this.

Google is rapidly expanding their business these years, it seems they are going to dominate the internet marketing. You know, they released a new browser a few weeks ago, and buy some advertising companies all over the world.

For search engine marketing, they began to kill sites which sell text links last year, now they are more serious about this. Yeah, needless to say, what they are doing is right, but I think it is not so reasonable for advertising marketing.

Now we want to know is what Google’s next action will be, what do you think about this?

TechCrunch reiterates the rumor that Google is about to acquire Digg. “The two companies have reportedly signed a letter of intent and are close to a deal that will bring Digg under the Google News property. The acquisition price is in the $200 million range, says one source.”

Whether this is true or not, we can predict something, that is, obviously, Google will dominate the internet marketing, it wants to the number one and the only one!

Since Google has such ambition, will it come true? let’s wait and see.
