The Internet's COOLEST Search Engine!
Why should we crawl the web...when we can RUN it?

***Add YOUR Company's Web Site To Azoos.Com TODAY!!!***

I honestly don't know who sent me that e-mail. Whoever sent
it didn't bother to sign his or her name. The e-mail simply
said "Check this out!"

I have to admit, that e-mail got me more than a little
curious about Azoos, so I did a little digging and I found
the following press release:

Not only has Azoos.Com managed to remain one of THE fastest
services of its kind when it comes to including user-
submitted URLs in its vast database, it’s now also one of
THE fastest search engines on the ‘net! Thanks to the
implementation of new technologies developed & improved by
its software engineers during the last six months, Azoos has
joined the ranks of those search engines capable of
returning results in less than 1 second!

But unlike other high-end search engines who boast
comparable speeds, Azoos.Com goes one step further by
guaranteeing instant placement for webmasters who submit
their company’s webpage via the engine’s "add url" feature.
Combined, these elements make Azoos the ONLY key player
online capable of speedy search results AND speedy spidering
of user-submitted sites!

In an age where so many sites have given up their
individuality to become "meta" search engines; pooling the
databases of other engines to produce unoriginal search
results,--Azoos.Com remains true to traditional search
engine format by selecting its own data, spidering URLs from
its own database, & producing its own unique search results.

And while so many other successful engines have gone on to
charge fees as high as $300 or more for website "reviews,"
Azoos still bills its instant-add submission service at only
$69 for a guaranteed listing and site spidering.

As Azoos representative Andrew Greenstein says, "We
originally set out to create a search engine that offered
something unique not only for the end-user but for the site
submitter as well. Now that our search technology has
improved so dramatically, it’s clear that our initial vision
has become a reality and our primary goal has been
achieved."

And although the bright yellow search engine may still have
a long way to go before it can compete with the "big boys"
in terms of audience size, Azoos.Com may very well be one of
the most promising prospects on the debt-riddled Internet
today.

Well, I can certainly agree with them on one thing. They do
indeed have a long way to go, before they can compete with
the big boys--a very long way!

Here's the problem as I see it with Azoos. They want $69.95
to add you to their database. This despite the fact that not
one of the top search engines charges money to spider your
website. And those colors are brutal on the eyes! Whose
brilliant idea was that? Blue text on a screaming yellow
background, with a design reminiscent of the Cartoon
Network.

I wasn't impressed, and I certainly wasn't interested in
spending $69.95 to be included on some cartoonish looking
search site.

While I was there I figured I'd check out their search
function. I did a few searches and got some satisfactory
returns. Nothing special, but satisfactory. Also, their
traffic count is low, comparatively speaking, for a search
engine.

In conclusion, I can't recommend Azoos. There are just far
too many superior, free alternatives!

   by Dean PhillipsOn November 16th, 2003, Google commenced an update (the Florida update) which had a catastrophic effect for a very large number of websites and, in the process, turned search engine optimization upside down. It is common to give alphabetical names to Google's updates in the very same way that names are given to hurricanes, and this one became known as Florida. In a nutshell, a vast number of pages, many of which had ranked at or near the top of the results for a very long...

•The Truth About Search Engines Playing A Game You Can t Win

Between them, they index millions and millions of pages in their directories. Although Google claims to index over 4 billion. However, that's a subject for another day. The point is, out of all those millions and millions of pages, there's room for only a very few websites at the top of the results pages.That means, if you go strictly by the number of indexed web pages...

•Pay Per Call Advertising Is It The Next Big Thing

Advertising developers are pushing a new type of paid search ad dubbed pay-per-call. The technology for pay-per-call was actually introduced in April by Ingenio, a San Francisco-based company that develops technology for delivering online ads. Five-year-old, privately held Ingenio has 90 employees and expects 2004 revenue of $65 million to $70 million, says...
