As with almost everything in life the search industry is getting larger and larger. Its not however as large as some people may think. New figures from a survey in America suggest that there is a new high for the amount of people that use search engines and the figure has gone up to 49%. This means that if the survey was accurate then less than half the amount of people that use the internet use a search engine.
The rise in the amount of people using search engines has been put down to the quality of the results a search engine will return. The better and more relevant the results then the more people are using search engines.
This of course is were SEO comes into action. 49% of people is less than half, this means that there are still a lot more people to be converted into using search engines. This also means there is a lot more future potential revenue to be made on the internet. Its plain to see that search results are getting a lot better and with a majority of industries now if you don’t have SEO then your website is less likely to turn up in any search results.
