BRANDS ARE 'going to space ' on GOOGLE WITH first EVER PLUG-N-PLAY SEARCH RANK Platform
Just like Jeff Bezos, who flew to space on the first crewed flight of the New Shepard (the rocket ship made by his space company, Blue Origin), businesses are now soaring to the first page of Google at a speed never before seen with human eyes. Bezos, 57, who took the flight with his younger brother, Mark Bezos in 2021 (just 15 days after he resigned as CEO of Amazon), posted to Instagram before his flight “Ever since I was five years old, I've dreamed of traveling to space. On July 20th, I will take that journey with my brother. The greatest adventure, with my best friend."
While Bezos traveled into space (okay, so, it was a sub-orbital tourism mission which only took him 100 meters up – but hey, still cool, right?) the reality is, the vast majority of business owners around the globe today dream of simply soaring to page-one of Google. After all, considering 70% of all purchases online begin with a search (and Google currently holds 92% of the search engine market), who wouldn’t want to achieve such a feat!?
Lifting a person – or a business – into space, isn’t easy. Even if your website is awesome – like the ones we build at Electric Retina . . . a super cool website is not enough. (Just ask the millions of businesses who have poured their heart, soul, and money into building a website, but still aren’t generating any substantial business from online searches!)
Just like Bezos — the world's richest person in 2021 with a $187 billion net worth — who was the first of the billionaire space tycoons to experience a ride aboard the rocket technology that he's poured millions into developing, the only way to rise above the rest, is by boarding a rocket to get you there.
business punches school of sucker-fish in the head —just because it can
Why do octopuses have eight arms? The better to punch fish with, new research reveals.
Just like these brainy cephalopods, top business brands online conquer the masses (schools of fish) because they're operating from a highly-balanced and dominate digital vehicle.
The smartest octopuses (and top brands) have even learned how to team up with fish (and other smaller websites) to find food by hunting collaboratively — in balanced, synergistic relationships — to cover more area and increase their chances of catching prey (and landing more customers)!

Temporary hunting alliances between octopuses* and coral reef fish have been documented for decades and can involve multiple participants of various species, study authors reported Dec. 18 in the journal Ecology.
Sometimes, fish and octopuses will work together for more than an hour, with different species scouting different locations. Octopuses pursue prey that dart around rocks and into tight spaces in the reef, while bottom-feeding fish such as the yellow-saddle goatfish (Parupeneus cyclostomus) scour the seafloor, and other fish species patrol the water column, according to the study.
Like the clever octopus, the savvy business in 2022 understands that their website is the center of a perfectly balanced online image, and — when built and connected correctly — serves as the center point to capturing more food (customers — yay!) in a myriad of strategic ways.
*Editors Note: “Octopuses” gives the word an English ending to match its adoption as an English word. Generally, when a noun enters into English, it is pluralized as an English word rather than in its original form. Octopuses may sound peculiar to some, but this is the preferred plural. While “octopi” has become popular in modern usage, it's wrong. The letter “i” as a suffix to indicate a plural noun only applies to words with Latin roots, like “cacti” for more than one cactus. But octopus is derived from Greek, so the proper pluralization in this case would be “odes” if it was ever used.
This chairman builds top brands with 'VR precision'
Some say Meta is the loudest company building Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) hardware. Microsoft has HoloLens . . . and Apple is working on something, too. But the wise would be prudent not to count out Google.
Since pre-Jan 2022, the search giant has been ramping up work on a VR/AR headset, internally codenamed Project Iris (“Isaac” would have been cooler, but alas) that it hopes to ship in 2024. Like headsets planned from Meta and Apple, Google’s device uses outward-facing cameras to blend computer graphics with a video feed of the real world, creating a more immersive, mixed reality experience than existing AR glasses from brands like Snap and Magic Leap.
Who will win the race? Simply put: The company with the best combination of technology + marketing.
Just as AR is changing the face of virtual reality, the leading business brands in the 2022 business economy have embraced advanced, centralized technology as a necessity for powering their marketing (read: story telling) efforts, proving that a great 360-degree strategy is after all, still the best whole-medicine for dominating the customer acquisition landscape.

Why must your strategy include game-changing technology now, when you’ve gotten by in years past without it? Because the world’s leading companies are currently raising (and pouring) cash into patented software and systems that give them an indisputable edge over smaller businesses (like yours).
As one user recently related: “I had the chance to demo a prototype of [Google’s] technology, using a modified Oculus Rift headset with Varjo’s (Google brand tech, which means “shadow” in Finnish) display systems embedded. I suppose the best testament to the company’s technology was that I spent most of the demo questioning whether my eyesight had actually been improved. After being dropped into an apartment scene, I was almost disturbed by my ability to read the spines of books on bookshelves several feet away.”
When technology is producing “eyesight” better than “human eyesight itself,” it’s clear the time has come to stop standing on the sidelines acting like you know it all, and start positioning yourself to compete by engaging a technology-eyesight expert.
