The latest study by Chitika, the first search result on Google receives twice the clicks than the second result and three times the third.

According to data gathered in searches of Google, the first results received for 35% of clicks, the second gets 17% and third 12%. But above all that the biggest leap of visits to appear on the first page of results. The pages at # 10, the end of the first page of results, were 143% more visits than the first result of the second page # 11.

These data confirmed that SEO is most important to be on the top of the web search results. :)

After the China – Google attacks, Google has taken measures, that the attack won’t happen again by ditching Microsoft OS.

Google has informed its employees to use of Microsoft operating systems in the future for security reasons. Apparently, after the attacks of China, who got into Google’s systems by exploiting a bug in Windows, Google has decided to stop using the MS Windows.

They say that any Google employee who wants to use a Windows PC has to ask for special permission says Google employee:

Most no longer use Windows. It is an effort on security. Many people have moved from PCs to the Mac OS, especially after the attacks from China.

Google says it is comfortable with systems like Mac or Linux. Microsoft is a competitor to Google, so it might make sense to pay less for Microsoft licenses, while Windows insecurity is advertised. On the other hand, Google promotes Apple and Linux, who is also a competitor. Others see this step behind the upcoming launch of Google’s own OS –  The Chrome OS.

The truth is that the strong competitor in operating systems is Windows, not Apple. Not many people will switch to Apple because Google does not think that is safer, but many will stop using Windows.
