That's like saying what makes StevePavlina.com work is well, stevepavlina.com. In truth, it's the brain who put stuff up on stevepavlina.com that makes it work. Same with google. Google has set up thousands of computers to handle the search, developed very specialized algorithm and created new software that you can access through google.com. Thus this is two seperate value - one is the domain name (because people are in the habit of going to it), the other is the company (all the computers server farm, algorithm, people, buildings, software, etc). The two are seperatable.
