For advertisers, search engine advertising represents an attractive opportunity to selectively reach the target group at a point in time when the prospects are already thematically involved and activated. One question that subsequently arises is if users use various devices during different phases of the search process and if this behavior affects the search engine advertising outcome measured by corresponding performance indicators. The present chapter addresses this question. Based on a search engine advertising campaign of a German service provider, the authors examine the development of performance indicators across multiple devices. Specifically, we retrace the development across desktops, tablets, and mobile devices. Thus, the chapter provides insights into device usage in search engine advertising. The chapter concludes with overall trends in search engine advertising.

This paper examines the overlapping of the results retrieved between three major search engines namely Google, Yahoo and Bing. A rigorous analysis of overlap among these search engines was conducted on 100 random queries. The overlap of first ten web page results, i.e., hundred results from each search engine and only non-sponsored results from these above major search engines were taken into consideration. Search engines have their own frequency of updates and ranking of results based on their relevance. Moreover, sponsored search advertisers are different for different search engines. Single search engine cannot index all Web pages. In this research paper, the overlapping analysis of the results were carried out between October 1, 2018 to October 31, 2018 among these major search engines namely, Google, Yahoo and Bing. A framework is built in Java to analyze the overlap among these search engines. This framework eliminates the common results and merges them in a unified list. It also uses the ranking algorithm to re-rank the search engine results and displays it back to the user.

Abundant data has led to new opportunities for empirical auctions research in recent years, with much of the newest work on auctions of multiple objects, including: (1) auctions of ranked objects (such as sponsored search ads), (2) auctions of identical objects (such as Treasury bonds), and (3) auctions of dissimilar objects (such as FCC spectrum licenses). This paper surveys recent developments in the empirical analysis of such auctions. (JEL D44, H82)
