Having gone through librarianship and information studies courses in the 1970s, this reminds me of current awareness services, that were carried out by dedicated information officers. By then, the volume of information was too great, that proprietary automated systems took over. Then we had Google, and now look!

You don't even need to advertise with Google to track website visitors. Just install Google Analytics. But it's true that you don't see Omani companies advertising online. For example, I can be served any number of adverts by foreign travel companies selling holidays in Oman online, but never an Omani company.
