For comparison, Google's U.S. desktop search share was 66.7 percent last month, according to comScore (and probably even higher overseas). Given that Google is the default search engine on iOS and Android—which represent around 80 percent of the global smartphone market—its dominance is not surprising, but it also provides some insight into the mobile ad market. The majority of mobile ad revenues come from search, which is really just an extension of the desktop. Many assume that mobile will be a huge new revenue stream for companies like Google, but advertisers may just be shifting their resources to meet changing consumer behaviors.
