Boost eLearning, the pioneer in Google search training for organizations, today announced results of a new survey indicating 39 percent of all Google searches fail, leading to more than 40 hours – or one week – of lost productivity per user per year. The online survey found that respondents perform about 12 searches per day and, statistically, 4.7 of those searches do not obtain the desired results. Respondents also report that they spend an average of 30.8 minutes per day searching online. The reported amount of time lost on each search that does not deliver the desired result equates to 12 minutes per day – or 46 hours annually. In addition to lost productivity, a high search-failure rate also indicates that a user’s current research results are likely incomplete, leading to missed opportunities, the value of which could far exceed any time lost.
