?PS. Present today’s update, and by the way, vote for the "Starting Point" 515 Fan Festival. Everyone has 8 votes. Voting will also give away starting points. I beg your support and appreciation!

After the two-month antitrust investigation was over, the stock price of Internet companies finally rebounded, but only the stock price of Isearh began to plummet! The reason is that after AOL acquired Global Online, it immediately replaced Isearh search with AOL search, which led to a decrease in Isearh's market share!

Regarding this point, Henry had already expected it.

This is only temporary, and anyone who despises Isearh will be severely slapped in the face.

Google left Yahoo, and continued to develop, and finally overwhelmed Yahoo!

Similarly, Isearh's advantages in search technology and user habits have destined Isearh's search position in the market to remain in the leading position.

Especially when Isearh establishes its own website search homepage, then netizens will leave the global online and directly open the Isearh website search homepage to search for what they want. Global online user traffic will inevitably be lost. In addition, when Isearh company develops hao1 Internet navigation, it will also cause a major blow to the portal!

When the Internet was just emerging, the number of websites was very small and they were not well-known. Most netizens were unable to start in the face of the vast sea of ​​nets. However, portal websites that mainly provided search services played the role of "introductory" to netizens and became netizens. "Gateway" to the Internet. After that, news service became the main business and core competitiveness of the portal website! The development of the portal website has also changed from a simple search website to a huge comprehensive Internet information resource provider.

Search and portal sites have also become very clear!

However, when the Internet matures and under differentiated competition, various websites are born. People's requests for information or news will no longer be completely dependent on portals, and they can directly and selectively Enter a website!

Therefore, the decline of portal sites is the inevitable development of history. But with the increasing information on the Internet, search has become more and more important.

Currently. Newspapers are slandering Isearh, thinking that the loss of Isearh's global online presence is equivalent to losing its market position. But Isearh will tell them that the loss of Isearh online globally is the real loss. AOL made a loss-making deal!

On November 1, Isearh officially launched the Isearh website search homepage, and at the same time, it also launched a navigation website!

One month after the launch of the Isearh website search homepage, the website traffic ranks first on the Internet. Far surpassing the sum of Global Online and AOL! When the data calculated by Alea was released, the industry was shocked!

In contrast, global online user traffic has fallen sharply, less than 60% of the past.

Many netizens commented that since AOL search has been used online globally, the user experience is extremely poor. AOL search is simply rubbish, incomparable to Isearh, many things cannot be searched, and there are many false and deceptive advertisements!

therefore. Many Internet users know that Isearh launched its own website search homepage, and then directly use the website to search. The search homepage interface of Isearh website is simple and clean, which is very welcome. In the middle of the interface is a search box, with Isearh's logo on the top, and some links below. The first one is "hao1 Internet navigation". After using hao1 Internet navigation, netizens find it very useful. There is Isearh on the website. In the search box, links to major websites are listed below in categories. Which website the user likes to enter is very convenient, no need to enter the website address, just click the link directly!

Henry asked people to develop a function on hao1 Internet navigation. When it is detected that the user is using hao1 to navigate the Internet for the first time, the website will pop up a small prompt: "Please automatically set hao1 to the browser homepage!"

The user only needs to click "OK" to complete the automatic setting of the browser's homepage!

The promotion of hao1 Internet navigation is very fast. It is different from portal websites. It simply provides links to major websites, which is convenient for users to enter other websites and has an Isearh search box. Therefore, it is deeply loved by users, and it has quickly swept the entire Internet with lightning speed!

Hao1's Internet navigation is very popular, and the search homepage of Isearh's website is also very popular. In addition to the existing hao1 Internet navigation under the search box, there are also "Post Bar", "Encyclopedia", "Music", "Picture", and the Isearh map launched by Isearh!

Use Isearh map, and then enter the content you want to search, you can take pictures via satellite and view high-definition satellite photos. As for other functions, they are still under development. However, this feature is already very impressive. Many netizens use Isearh maps to conduct various searches and take pictures via satellite. Netizens have captured many interesting pictures of streets, and then posted them on the Internet, which aroused the attention of many people.

The launch of Isearh map shocked countless netizens.

Compared with satellite photography, camera photography is simply weak.

Satellite photography is full of sense of technology, and netizens can take pictures of places thousands of miles away from home, which is simply amazing!

The Isearh map quickly became popular. However, satellite photography can only be used by users registered with Isearh, and ordinary netizens can only view the pictures that have been taken by the satellite before! In order to be able to use satellites to take pictures, a large number of netizens have registered Isearh accounts.

For a time, Isearh users increased greatly, and the user viscosity was extremely high.

Obviously, Isearh has broken away from the embrace of global online, relying on its own hao1 and search homepage, and its development momentum has become even stronger. Advertisers have cooperated with Isearh, and the price has increased a lot. Shareholders who sold their stocks immediately Regret it.

The strong rise of Isearh has been greatly impacted by both Global Online and AOL.

People can not use Global Online and AOL, but they cannot use Isearh!

Isearh’s stock price soared immediately and its market value exceeded US$200 billion, while Global Online’s stock price plummeted, but its market value fell below US$200 billion to only US$165 billion, evaporating nearly US$50 billion, and AOL’s stock price was naturally crazy. Falling endlessly.

For a time ~lightnovelpub.net~, the media began to slander Global Online and AOL again.

Many economic commentators in the United States claimed: “AOL’s acquisition of Global Online is the largest acquisition in history, and at the same time, it is also the most failed acquisition ever! Global Online’s abandoning Isearh and using AOL search instead is destined to do so. failure!"

Wall Street analysts said: "The rise of Isearh allows us to see the power of search. On the other hand, portals are gradually losing their market share! As Isearh becomes more and more powerful, we have reason to believe that Global Online and AOL The stock price will continue to fall!"

At this moment, the atmosphere at AOL is very depressing.

Steve Case was no longer as vigorous as before, his face was full of tiredness. He did not expect Isearh's rise to be so fast that it made people too late to react! hao1 Internet navigation, Isearh website search homepage, and Isearh map. For Steve Case, it is simply three sharp arrows that hit his heart...
