WASHINGTON, D.C. — Google is expanding its search advertising capabilities with the acquisition of WIRED magazine.
The news magazine is published by Wired Media, the parent company of Wired and Wired Plus.
The acquisition includes the WIRED Online app for Android and the Wired App for iPhone.
“The WIRED team has built a deep, dedicated, and powerful editorial product that continues to delight and engage its users,” Google said in a statement.
“With this acquisition, we will expand our editorial team, including hiring more journalists, designers, and writers to deliver our news and information in an even better way.”
Google is known for expanding its reach in the digital media space.
It has been the top search engine for more than a decade and has been at the forefront of a range of new platforms including YouTube, Instagram, and Google+.
The company recently launched its mobile news service, YouTube News, which has been used by Google employees to share and comment on stories.
Google’s search ad platform, AdWords, is also part of the deal.
Google has also recently invested heavily in the advertising industry, investing more than $1 billion in the U.S. ad and online advertising industry last year.
The company is also investing in new digital and mobile technologies.
“WIRED Magazine’s award-winning journalism and groundbreaking digital news have inspired a community of people who love to share their thoughts and stories,” Wired CEO Sam Singer said in the statement.
Google is also the first technology company to buy a news website in its history.
In 2015, the search giant bought The Washington Post for $1.6 billion.
