Google is now being questioned for its trust and loyalty it gives to the website owners. The issue is about the way Google deals with the users and the other the website owners to make money. As one of the biggest search engine optimization site, Google needs to be trustworthy enough especially to the online advertisements who pay Google for every second.
From timesofindia.indiatimes.com:
“This whole issue of how Google treats these vertical competitors, that’s a big issue now,” said Gary L Reback, a lawyer at Carr & Ferrell in Palo Alto, California, who has advised small companies that have brought antitrust cases against Google. Google announced the inquiry by the Texas attorney general, Greg Abbott, on Friday after Search Engine Land, an industry blog, reported on it. Lauri Saathoff, a spokeswoman for Abbott, confirmed the existence of the investigation but declined to give more information because the review was not complete.
Google is not providing any details as to how and on what criteria any website reaches to number one rank in the search results. The investigation is still going on and Google is being interrogated by officials as either its making illegal money or discouraging other search engines.
