Search engines, which collect, organize and display knowledge of the internet, are the backbone of the information age and have helped popularize the ad-supported attention economy that prevails throughout the internet. From 2019 to 2024, spending on internet advertising has maintained strong momentum as consumer demand for internet access continued to surge, driven by the adoption of LTE, 5G and unlimited mobile data plans. Despite COVID-19 depressing total advertising expenditure, digital advertising continued to grow as consumers practically lived online while stay-at-home orders were in place. As a result, search engine revenue from advertising is slated to mount at a CAGR of 10.4% to $287.5 billion, including an anticipated hike of 8.4% in 2024, with profit at 18.7%. The search engine industry is fundamentally differentiated from the rest of the economy by its advertising sales framework, market aggregation and high interconnection with other industries. While search is a consumer product, search revenue comes from a platform's desirability to advertisers, not users. Search platforms must balance providing the best search experience while integrating as many advertisements as possible. This difficult balance is challenging to achieve because advertising dollars tend to scale best on the leading search platform, increasing aggregation forces for search providers. The market leaders in search, Google and Microsoft, have met this balance by using advertising revenue to grow a suite of services designed to collect extensive behavior information on and off the search website. This data then targets ads to hyper-specific markets, funding the search business model. As the number of hours spent on the internet continues to mount, search engine revenue is poised to climb at a CAGR of 7.1% to $404.9 billion through the end of 2029. Advertisers will rely increasingly on search engine marketing due to its cost-effectiveness and efficiency advantages over traditional media. With proper analytics software installed, marketers can track which terms, advertisements and websites are the most effective, enabling incremental real-time tweaks and improvements in advertising campaigns. Artificial intelligence has promised to change the purpose of search from navigation to finding answers, which will change the structure of the internet, just as search engine providers have done many times before.
