Is that top search engine Baidu? Yandex? Google? Depends on who and where you ask.


Yandex has about ~1.5% revenues of Google. Baidu ~11%. It's not even a contest which rakes in the most money.


If I had a company that made even 0.1% of Google, I'd probably start each day running around the room in feats of joy and delight.

Seriously, if I could pay talented people many hundreds of thousands of dollars, have a nice office, happy customers, a decent product, and only make a paltry 136 million a year, where do I sign up?!


You're getting away from the tread though. At 0.1% you're not FedEx to Google's UPS.

And if you're running a similar service, say a speciality search engine, Google might come after you at a moment's notice.
