When it comes to digital marketing, understanding where your audience is searching is half the battle. In 2025, one platform continues to stand head and shoulders above the rest—Google.
Google’s Unmatched Market Share
According to Wikipedia, as of May 2023, Google commands a staggering 93.12% of all global search engine traffic, further solidifying its dominance in the digital sphere (Wikipedia - Search Engines).
That stat isn’t just a blip. Recent investigative reporting from the Financial Times in August 2024 corroborates this, stating Google “controls approximately 90% of global internet searches” (Financial Times).
Additionally, The Times UK reaffirmed in a 2024 article that Google holds around 90% of the search engine market, citing ongoing antitrust cases in the U.S. related to its overwhelming dominance (The Times).
Why This Matters to Marketers
With over 9 out of every 10 searches occurring on Google, any business not optimizing for this platform is essentially invisible to a vast online audience. Ranking high on Google doesn’t just mean visibility—it means credibility, conversions, and growth.
Here’s what this means for your digital strategy:
SEO is no longer optional. It’s essential.
Google Ads remain one of the highest-return investments for targeted marketing.
Google My Business optimization can dramatically impact local search visibility.
