Alphabet said growth continued as companies bought more ads on its search engine and other products, while users increasingly clicked on those ads. Revenue, fueled by Google&#8217;s advertising business, rose 21% to $21.5 billion in the second quarter from a year ago, beating analysts&#8217; average estimate of $20.76 billion. The rise of smartphones has put internet-connected computers in the pockets of more than a billion people world-wide, leading to a surge in internet use&#8212;and a major boost to the bottom lines of tech giants such as Google and Facebook Inc. As consumers use the companies&#8217; wildly popular free services more, Google and Facebook can sell more ads to companies trying to reach those users. &#8220;The strength of the quarter is about mobile,&#8221; Google Chief Executive Sundar Pichai said Thursday. &#8220;Our investment in mobile now underlines everything that we do today, from search and YouTube to Android and advertising.&#8221; <a href="http://www.wsj.com/articles/google-profits-surge-on-strong-ad-demand-1469736762?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=wall-street-journal-google-profits-surge-as-demand-for-advertisements-grows-5353" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Click here to read the original article.</a>
