Paid Search To Grow 41% In 2006

Here’s more statistics that emphasize online marketing has hit the tipping point. According to a ClickZ story, paid search is expected to grow 41 percent in 2006. This should heat up what is already a hot marketing sector. The story projects the annual paid search growth rate at 37 percent per year through 2010. Based on the Rule of 72, that mean it will more than double every two years!

It appears Google will benefit most from this searing growth. They already have the lion’s share of the search market with Yahoo and MSN running a distant second and third respectively.
