Google search earns over $138,000,000 per day. Best of luck outgunning them.

You don't need to beat Google on revenue. You just need to make enough to cover costs and retain enough talent to keep improving your search engine.

Google made $79B from ad revenue in 2016[1]. $79B in a year / 365 days per year = 218M per day. So GP underestimated by quite a bit.

Or put another way: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=google+ad+revenue

is "making per day" profit or revenue?

If I had a hot dog cart and sold $500 worth of hot dogs, but the hot dogs cost me $100, to me, that's not making $500.
