If you&#8217;re<br \/>\na webmaster or an online marketer you&#8217;re probably checking your<br \/>\nstats\/traffic\/conversion numbers like never before &#8211; Google sure<br \/>\nknows how to make everyone dance!<\/p>\n<p>However, the average Google user will probably scratch their heads<br \/>\nand have a blank expression &#8211; Google Instant, what&#8217;s that? Or Google<br \/>\nhas changed?<\/p>\n<p>For those who have noticed the faster speeds, a few people are questioning<br \/>\nthe annoyance factor with Google Instant and some are even comparing it to<br \/>\nthe &#8220;New Coke&#8221;. An extreme few even believe it&#8217;s overkill, like using<br \/>\na Nuclear Bomb to kill a kitten, way too much power for what&#8217;s needed.<br \/>\nOr maybe Google Instant will have a major learning curve as searchers get<br \/>\naccustomed to using this new lightening fast search?<\/p>\n<p>None of this would matter if Google wasn&#8217;t the most dominant search engine<br \/>\non the planet. Google means traffic, Google means targeted customers, and<br \/>\nGoogle means money in the bank for countless online marketers and webmasters<br \/>\nwho receive all of the above from the little search engine that roared.<\/p>\n<p>What is really frightening, Google almost has a monopoly on the online<br \/>\nsearch market, especially now with Yahoo being powered by Bing. Webmasters<br \/>\nand marketers can now only rely on two search engines to supply their search<br \/>\ntraffic. While there are numerous sources of viable traffic on the web outside<br \/>\nof the search engines&#8230; many marketers already have the majority of their<br \/>\nonline marketing geared to the search engines, especially Google.<\/p>\n<p>Most of these same marketers were instantly worried (some say horrified) how<br \/>\nGoogle&#8217;s new real-time search would impact their marketing, especially their<br \/>\nlong-tail keywords which bring in most of the sales? While the jury is still<br \/>\nout on that one, other issues are popping up regarding &#8220;paid listings&#8221; and how<br \/>\nit is now more dominant in search results, pushing the free organic listings<br \/>\ndown further and sometimes pushing them out of the fold. Even with the arrow<br \/>\nkeys now coming into play, many searchers are just too lazy to scroll and will<br \/>\njust click the first visible listings.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps even more important are the results which pop-up when you first start<br \/>\ntyping in your search query. These are really the golden winners in Google&#8217;s<br \/>\nInstant Search. Having your site or company listed when a searcher types the<br \/>\nfirst letter &#8211; has to be a real traffic bonanza.<\/p>\n<p>Now these results vary from country to country, the results showing for the<br \/>\nUnited States are slightly different from those showing for Canada. Again,<br \/>\nGoogle is showing why it is the top search engine in the world &#8211; the Canadian<br \/>\nresults are well matched with NHL, Canadian Tire, BMO, Rogers, Via Rail&#8230;<br \/>\nall showing up.<\/p>\n<p>Below you will find a list of the 26 American and Canadian Golden Winners<br \/>\nin Google&#8217;s new Instant Search. These first letter offerings will vary somewhat<br \/>\naccording to your location and as search queries change over time.
