Universal Search Boosts Google Maps
By Matt McGee on Jun 7, 2007 | comments (1)
Bill Tancer posts tonight about the effects of Universal Search on traffic to various Google properties. And Google Maps, according to the Hitwise data, has seen a 20% boost in traffic since the formal introduction of Universal Search.
This is reminiscent of the 26% jump that Maps saw in the first month after the expanded Local Onebox debuted in late January/early February.
It has to be said, though, that Google Maps is still a tiny 1.42% of all Google traffic.
