Google history

Google’s history began in January 1996. At that time, Larry Page and Sergey Brin do research to create new search engine that provides search results better (relevant) for its users. They hypothesize that the most relevant search results will be generated when the search engine that can analyze the relationship between websites. They finally produced a new search engine called BackRub. This is because the name of the search engine web site analyzes inter-backlink.

Page and Brin tested BackRub at the Stanford University website with the domain name google.stanford.edu. They succeeded with this test. With this success, Page and Brin registered the domain google.com on September 15, 1997 and founded the company with the name of Google Inc. on September 4, 1998. Google the name itself is a play on googol, which means 10 rank 100.

At first the company is located in a garage in Menlo Park California. In March 1999, the company moved to Palo Alto, an elite area where technology development is known as the Silicon Valley. Quick, google.com attract Internet users the world because of the ease and relevance of the results.

With this rapid progress, Google hired a complex of buildings in Mountain View from Silicon Graphics Inc. (SGI) in 2007. The complex is known as the Googleplex, and Google has purchased from SGI in 2006.
