Those who are using internet frequently will agree with me that Firefox is one of must popular internet browser on internet. The most important thing is it's free and open source application i.e one can customize it as per their need and requirement. Have you ever thought how they earn money or How they spend that much time and invest that much money on development of such a free software.Mozilla co-operation is the company behind the Firefox web browser, Mozilla co-operation was started as Non-profit company, but now its no more in that category. They are earning $40,000,000 per year. Wow!that's awesome. But Howoooooo??
With every Firefox web browser, we got the search engine toolbar with Google as default search engine for that bar. Here starts the earning secret. Google pays huge amount to Firefox for making the default search engine in that bar and for making the home page as Google.com i.e. "Firefox start page" which have Google bar. This deal with Google, helps Firefox to earn there 80% of total earnings.
This agreement with Google will end in November of 2011 so they have plenty of money to continue the development of new and advanced version of Firefox.
Firefox also sells t-shirts, and such other accessories with high price tag at there Firefox Store and people buy them because it feels great to have official clothing and accessories from such big brands. People also donate for there development work, donation also plays an important role in earning money. They also got millions of hits to there site per day, so there must be some sort of earning strategy there too. but I don't have any idea about it.
This is how the Firefox earns money and gives us the best web browser.
