    Even as we have added content and features to our search results, the volume of traffic we send to non-Google sites has increased every year since Search was created. Our search results page, which used to show 10 links, now shows an average of 26 outgoing links on mobile devices.

    Except that the link they provide doesn’t even address this issue! And the “volume of traffic” is not the interesting metric. If this Volume grows much slower than the total volume of searches in Google, this means that there is a lower portion of Google’s searches that link to non-google owned websites.
