Nigeria Ranked Top 3 By Google  In Global Online Search

Internet search giant Google has ranked Nigeria among the top three countries in the world who spend a well-meaning time online making researches about goods and services.

This was revealed by Google’s country manager for Kenya, Mr Charles Murito, in South Africa during a paper presentation on the evolution of digital advertising and the rise of online presence among African countries

He says Nigeria, which is the leading country in Afriaca for online presence through mobile search, rose from 76 percent in 2014 to 86 percent in 2017.

Mr Murito attributes the growth in online presence among African countries to the available and affordable mobile devices but notes that the number could grow faster if the cost of mobile broadband data is drastically reduced.
