Google Instant will change the search experience by predicting search terms and displaying results as a user types, removing the need to click search. This will increase importance of ranking for major key phrases as results are visible earlier. It may also benefit video/image results. For advertisers, it will lead to more frequent refreshing of ads, lowering quality impressions initially but potentially increasing clicks over time as users interact more with predicted results. Marketers will need to focus even more on targeting major industry keywords.
