Today these two company rulling the interenet world
earlier was Google vs Yahoo. Google wants to be No-1 in all platform but this is not happening.Facebook accuire and the giant in social networking,Google has more focus on seach engine he just ignore the impact of Facebook and social media sites
when he realize it was too late and coming with product like Google+ shows that Google is simply not serious. It is the Golden chance for Yahoo to Introduce a social networking site to the world but seems to be he also not intrested to compete Facebook
world need a fighter who can compete Facebook and Google

As and several others noted, the 2014 view — Google for search, Facebook for social — still maps to reality, but the landscape changed in the years that followed. Google tried a consumer social layer (Google+), which Google closed for consumer accounts on April 2, 2019. Facebook expanded into a family of apps (Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger) and the parent company rebranded to Meta on October 28, 2021. Google remains the go-to search engine worldwide (roughly ~90% global share on StatCounter’s dashboards), though device and regional splits matter. (workspace.google.com)

Practical takeaway for anyone running sites or campaigns: treat search and social as complementary channels, not direct substitutes. Search is intent-driven — prioritize high-quality answers, mobile-first speed, correct canonical/sitemap setup and structured data so pages are eligible for rich results. Social is distribution-driven — craft native content, use Open Graph tags so links share with a good image/title, and use campaign UTMs plus platform analytics to measure ROI. A minimal Open Graph example to add inside <head>:

<meta property="og:title" content="Your page title" />
<meta property="og:description" content="A short, unique summary" />
<meta property="og:image" content="https://example.com/share.jpg" />
<meta property="og:url" content="https://example.com/this-page" />

For structured data and how search engines use it, follow Schema.org/Google Search Central guidance. (ogp.me)

Quick checklist (apply in this order): audit top referrers and set diversified targets; fix Core Web Vitals and mobile UX; add JSON‑LD for key content and OG tags for shareables; tag campaigns (UTM) and verify with Search Console + Meta Business tools; run small paid tests to scale winners. Keep expectations realistic: social amplification helps distribution and can drive links and visits, but it is not a direct ranking shortcut. This advice follows the thread’s core observations (e.g., , , ) while giving a practical path to balance search and social.

Member Avatar for Kelly Burby

Now that sounds great idea for the Yahoo, It's becasue the craze of social networking like facebook and Google+ is now way beyond, yes there is no doubt that still the king of the social networking is the facebook but, we also can't forget that every thing has its own limit and after the limit put to an extent it gadually falls down, people are now searching for something much more intresting than Facebook or Google+ if just yahoo came up up with an idea of diverting the mind of the individual to something different and much more intresting than the facebook and Google+ i am sure the in this rush towards the trophy yahoo can came on the top because nowadays Google and Facebook are on head to head competetion. Yahoo can take the advantage of the competetion... :)

Why are your comparing Facebook, Google and Yahoo. You may compare Yahoo and Google. Those are search engine and Facebook is social networking site.

Member Avatar for blackmiau

Facebook is a social platform, used for both entertainment and business.

Google is more than just a search engine. Google is, so far, the king of internet, with all its tools, while Facebook is a prince trying to get the throne.
