Googltrocity – Sponsored

Sponsoring one’s self is definitely nothing new.  People talk about themselves all the time and mostly everyone thinks they are great (no matter how deranged).  I wonder how Google handles the transactions where they are paying themselves and selling to themselves.. is the EPS (stock talk) altered by these numbers?

While searching out something on the search behemoth I noticed a Google link in the sponsored links.  Maybe this isn’t new to you, but to someone that doesn’t search stuff on Google all day (well, at least not every day) this is sort of interesting and odd.

Does Google pay for self-sponsored ads?

Here is are [see Dad, I'm learning] three examples of Googltrocity self-sponsorships:

Google Earth search

Google tips search

Google pay search
