  1. When a user visits Google.com, he enters a keyword and presses the Google Search button (this is called a search query). In response, Google displays a search results page, which lists web pages relating to the search query. The most relevant page appears first, followed by the second most relevant page, and so on. How does Google know which results are most relevant? The answer lies in Google’s algorithms, which are a set of advanced calculations that help identify the relevancy of results to each search query. Google crawls the web regularly, indexing billions of web pages – similar to the way a library card catalog indexes books. When a user enters a search term, Google scans its vast index and displays the most relevant pages based on PageRank™ and other advanced algorithms. PageRank™ relies on the link structure of the web as an indicator of an individual page’s value. In essence, Google interprets a link from page A to page B as a vote, by page A, for page B. But Google looks at more than the sheer volume of links a page receives; it also analyzes the page that hosts the link. Votes cast by pages that are themselves “important” weigh more heavily and help to make otherpages “important.”
  2. As previously mentioned, Facebook is currently the world’s most popular social media site with nearly 900 million monthly active users. This popularity has driven them to own 63.2% of the market share of social media services, beating out services such as Google+, Twitter, LinkedIn, and MySpace. They have captured such a large audience very rapidly due to the services they provide. Though others have attempted to mimic the Facebook site, Facebook provides a greater security level than MySpace, has a more user-friendly interface than Google+, and is more practical for the consumer. If the point of the service is to keep your friends and family updated on the latest news in your life, it’s beneficial if all your friends and family are on the same network. With such a current high usage rate, it would be difficult for a consumer to pull away from this service and join Google+ if their family and friends stay on Facebook.

With such a current high usage rate, it would be difficult for a consumer to pull away from this service and join Google+ if their family and friends stay on Facebook. Weak CTR of advertisements. Facebook has a lower click-through-rate (CTR) than an average website, which is only 0.05% and about 4% respectively. In order to earn more income from the advertisements Facebook has to change the way it displays the ads (advertisements on wall posts have more than 6% CTR) but without interfering users’ experience. 2. Social network lacks of some features. Although Facebook has a wide range of features that other social networks don’t, the website still lacks: video chats, group chats, dislike buttons, ability to unsubscribe from alerts and many others. 3. One source of revenues – advertisements on Facebook. More than 80% of Facebook’s revenues come from advertising on its social network. The growth of the revenues directly depends on the growth of users. This leaves the business very vulnerable and dependent on continuous growth of users, which will eventually be only marginal as the social network has already attracted so many users. 4. Attitude towards users’ privacy. Facebook collects private users’ information and then stores it, uses it for its own purposes or sells it. Such treatment of users’ private information draws negative attention that decreases popularity of Facebook. 5. Lack of website customization. Many Facebook’s users spend a lot of time on social network and want the website to reflect their personalities but are unable to customize the website to their needs and are forced to use uniform template for all users. In comparison, Google+ allows for much more personalization of the social network account than Facebook does. 6. Weak protection of users’ information. Facebook, having so many users that upload personal information to the social network, is a target for attacks that steal passwords and other personal information from the users. Such attacks occur every day and thousands of passwords are stolen. Though, Facebook is not doing enough to protect users’ from identity attacks.
  6. The primary method Facebook draws a profit is through advertising. There is high potential for Facebook to earn even more by producing advertisements integrated into the mobile applications for smartphones. They also have the proper analytics to branch into retail services without causing too much heartache. Their additional opportunity to grow their income is through creating an application payment system. Currently, applications purchased for use in Facebook, go directly to the software developer and do not filter through Facebook. This requires consumers who purchase items from numerous applications to put their information out in several different places. By having a consolidated location to make application payments, consumers may be more apt to buy.
  7. Increasing number of people using Facebook through mobile devices. Currently Facebook has more than 600 million users who use Facebook through mobile devices. Despite that this group makes 60% of all Facebook users, the mobile advertising only accounts for only 14% income for the company. Facebook has an opportunity to create a platform that could be used to display ads for mobile users and increase firm’s income. 2. Expansion to China. Easing government regulations and newly elected government may open a way for Facebook to enter China’s social networking market. Until then, Facebook should prepare itself for such an entry. 3. Diversify sources of revenue. Facebook heavily relies on advertising on its social network as a source of income, but with being the number 2 website in the world and more than 1 billion active monthly users, Facebook could exploit other opportunities to attract the money. 4. Open Facebook marketplace. With so many users and extensive coverage of the world, Facebook is well positioned to open Facebook marketplace. If successful, it would bring more revenues than the advertising, thus boosting company’s growth and future prospects.

  9. Google, already a strong and popular company, is growing in strength and provides a greater array of services to consumers. Additionally, Google+ has incorporated advertisements in their mobile platforms, giving them an advantage over Facebook. Additionally, Facebook privacy concerns have come to light on more than one occasion, raising eyebrows from consumers, advertisers and investors. If consumers do not feel their information is protected, they stand to lose a lot of business. Finally, Facebook has such a large piece of the market already that there is little room for expansion with their current services. Their service has been blocked in countries such as China, which is a major loss for the company due to the size of the country; however, if Facebook does not expand their services provided, they will eventually fail to grow.
  10. Increasing number of mobile internet users. Currently Facebook has more than 600 million users who use Facebook through mobile devices. Despite that this group makes 60% of all Facebook users, the mobile advertising only accounts for only 14% income for the business. If the company will be unable to monetize mobile users, it will face decreasing advertising income as more PC users will turn to mobile users. 2. Users using ad-block extensions. Educated internet users often install extensions that block advertisements from the websites. The growing number of such users is threatening Facebook’s model as they can’t see advertisements and click on them. 3. Slow growth rate of online advertising. Although online advertising still grows in double digits (14% in 2012, down from 23% in 2011) that growth is slowing down, thereby threatening growth of Facebook’s advertising income. 4. Identity thefts. Even today, identity thefts are common on Facebook. The more identities are stolen the more criticism Facebook will receive strongly damaging its brand for inability to protect users’ private information. 5. Weak business model. Facebook’s aim is to attract social network users, display the ads for them and charge the businesses for the ads displayed. Although Facebook’s business model looks sound for the moment, the company may face severe difficulties if some conditions change that are not in firm’s control. For example, slowing growth of online advertising, new social network, shift from advertising on Facebook to other websites, growing number of mobile users (Facebook is yet unable to monetize them) or failure to diversify source of income.
