Kdun – Google Really Start on September 27? That’s the question on many minds as the company marks its 27th birthday today with a nostalgic Doodle showing its original 1998 logo. Yet this date is not the company’s actual beginning. Google was officially incorporated on September 4, 1998, by Stanford PhD students Larry Page and Sergey Brin. Even earlier, in August 1998, Sun Microsystems co-founder Andy Bechtolsheim wrote a $100,000 check to the pair, an act widely considered the true financial birth of Google Inc.
This timeline raises the question: why has September 27 become the symbolic date? The answer isn’t straightforward, and even Google has shifted its birthday across the years.

The decision for Google to celebrate on September 27 seems to be rooted more in symbolism than history. In the early 2000s, the company experimented with various September dates, possibly tied to milestones or announcements. Since 2006, however, September 27 has consistently been used. Some observers suggest it may commemorate a breakthrough in web indexing achieved around that time, which marked Google’s rapid expansion in the search market.
In this sense, asking “When did Google Really Start?” is about more than a date. It reflects the company’s constant evolution from a small research project to the backbone of modern internet infrastructure.
No matter the date, Google Really Start anniversaries are about celebrating progress. From humble beginnings in a garage, the company has grown into a global powerhouse. Now operating under parent company Alphabet Inc., formed in 2015, Google’s reach extends far beyond search. Its portfolio includes Gmail, YouTube, Google Maps, Android, Pixel devices, and groundbreaking work in artificial intelligence through Gemini.
Founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin may have stepped back from daily operations, but they maintain influence through special Class B shares. Today, Sundar Pichai serves as CEO of both Google and Alphabet, guiding a company that shapes the digital lives of billions. Whether remembered on September 4 or September 27, the celebration underscores an extraordinary journey from startup vision to global dominance.
