It's advertising but they also keep track of your surfing and shopping habits and sell this information to companies. If you type "degree" all of a sudden you'll be getting emails from every so-called university in the country.

The answer is strategic partnerships. Both companies have made fortunes on providing data. Google in particular has never lost site of this. They give other companies their expertise in providing data in exchange for things like advertising opportunities, software or straight cash. Look at google maps.
