New Research: Google Search Grew 21%+ in 2024; Receives ~373X More Searches Than ChatGPT

The Edward Show

E626: New research shows not only is Google NOT dying, it is thriving.

Google Search - up 21% in 2024.

As is Google Images, Google News, and Google Maps.

Meanwhile, ChatGPT and other AI chatbots (Perplexity, Claude, Copilot, and Gemini) - Google gets 373 times more searches than them.

Earth-shattering research from Rand Fishkin, SparkToro, Datos, and Semrush.

However…

There is something to be alarmed about:

AI overviews are reducing organic clicks by 70% and paid clicks by 12%.

Top of funnel SEO is dead.

Bottom of funnel content is the solution. AI overviews STILL recommend your product. AI chatbots ALSO recommend your product.

Go where the attention is - bottom of funnel SEO on Google Search. You’ll benefit on every platform.
