since their revenue has traditionally been based in part, on ignorance (i.e. doing shit like enabling content clicks for the same cpc as search) and click fraud, obviously they are going to see some hit to revenues as they clean it up and people get educated. if you do any PPC stuff you know that yahoo and msn are not only still totally fucking retarded after all this time, but have only a fraction of the ad/search clicks. unless a new "google" pops up tomorrow that can corner the market on search results... its highly unlikely that they are going anywhere.
google isn't "lucky" - the are brilliant, a strong and innovative company, well managed and very in tune with webmaster and advertisers needs.
they are always going to be a solid long term investment.
