According to a Wall Street Journal report, Google's share of the $88.8 billion U.S. search advertising market is expected to fall to the lowest point in over a decade as a diverse set of competitors like Amazon, Perplexity AI, and TikTok deliver alternative search experiences. Consumers are conducting product searches through Amazon and social media searches through TikTok, with targeted ads creating revenue for each business along the way.
Bernstein Research shows that Gen Z is barely using the term Google as a verb. Young users are "searching" through social media, Amazon, and ChatGPT; they aren't "Googling," Bernstein analyst Mark Shmulik wrote in a September note.
Even with AI rivals like ChatGPT, Google's numbers remain strong. Its share of the overall search market has remained at least 90% so far. Bing, Yahoo, and other search engines have less than 4% each of the market.
