minus-squaresugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up0·6 months ago Google’s ad search revenue amounted to 175 billion That includes way more than search: That “search and other” figure includes revenue generated on Google’s search properties, along with ads on other Google-owned properties like Gmail, Maps and the Google Play app store. I couldn’t find a reliable source for a breakdown, so I’ll use Microsoft Bing statistics instead: $12.2B ad revenue in 2023 ~1.3 billion unique visitors globally as of March 2023 $9.66 Bing revenue per user That last number is really close to my $1/month figure. So something around $1/month range seems like a fair replacement for ad revenue for a search engine.
