Local search: the next big thing in pay per click 

Local search: the next big thing in pay per click

This month Overture announced a trial of their technology for local pay per click search results in the US - the demo is *here* - and in July Google announced that its PPC adverts will be shown on Switchboard, a US telephone directory site that covers both businesses (yellow pages) and people (white pages).

Search engines have long tapped into consumers desires to buy products and services from businesses near them by providing yellow pages services on their websites, for example Yahoo! UK and Yell.com's UK business finder http://uk.businessfinder.yahoo.com/ service.

But until now this area has not been specifically focused on by the big pay per click engines - but it was only a matter of time until they began to develop solutions to serve local advertising for local searches. Local advertising already provides large revenues for the publishers of the printed yellow pages (the UK's Yell entered the top 100 shares on the UK FTSE in September, for example). Overture estimates the local search market online will be worth $1 billion by 2008.

So what opportunities - and challenges - does the development of local search offer for you, the advertiser?

Overture Licenses Contextual Ad Technology 

Overture Licenses Contextual Ad Technology

Contextual ad technology provider Quigo Technologies announced on Wednesday that it inked a licensing deal with Overture Services (Quote, Company Info).

With the deal, Overture will use Quigo's AdSonar to back up its own homegrown technology that powers its Content Match contextual ad product.

Quigo, a 30-person startup based in New York, combines the algorithmic and editorial approaches to determine the content of a page and its best matched keyword advertising. AdSonar uses a human editor to set up relevancy boundaries for its semantic algorithm, which then learns a site's features and builds a database of information about the site.

"Google doesn't do this," said Michael Yavonditte, Quigo's chief executive and a former executive at Alta Vista. "We train the artificial intelligence."

Neither Yavonditte nor Overture would detail how Quigo would complement Overture's own algorithmic technology used in Content Match.

For large portions of what they can't do internally, we're going to be doing that," Yavonditte said.

Since its launch in late June, Content Match has played a game of catch-up with Google's AdSense, begun four months earlier.

Both search titans hope to extend the wild popularity of search into content pages by matching up the content of a page to their respective troves of advertisers. Google boasts over 100,000 advertisers; Overture reports 95,000.

Spammed by CatFancy!! 

Lucy, you're fat!" I told her after dinner. She just rolled on her back and stuck her little pink tongue out at me.

"Don't mock me, Lucy, I'm serious this time." Lucy stood and exited the room.

"Oh, look, you hurt her feelings!" laughed Paula, my very trim wife.

"That's right, just walk away from the problem!" I called after Lucy, our six-year-old house cat who had no doubt already fallen asleep on the sofa without giving a thought to her expanding midriff.

Paula patted me on the stomach and said, "You know what they say about throwing rocks in glass houses, William."

And this was how it was decided (or shall I say, decided for me). Lucy and I would go on a diet together.

My wife, a cat lover and avid reader of Cat Fancy magazine had recently found an article about weight loss for cats and got Lucy started the next day. And today, thanks to Cat Fancy magazine, at least one of us has won the battle of the bulge!

Find the up-to-date news and information you need to be a responsible cat owner with a FREE issue of Cat Fancy, and you could also get a FREE Suspension Dimension Butterfly Cat Chair, if you respond now:

Designed like a human butterfly chair, the cat version offers everything you and your cat could want. It's so easy to set up, just take the chair out of the box and unfold. The durable, cotton canvas cover slips off for machine washing, and the heavy duty steel frame has non-skid floor protectors. Your cat will love it! She'll be cradled in supportive comfort, and up off of hard, cold floors. There's even a catnip teaser toy to keep her entertained between naps!

The FREE Suspension Dimension Butterfly Cat Chair could be yours, when you try a FREE issue of Cat Fancy!

Behind you is a teenage girl who yearns to own everything you have on. The gold. The cashmere. The shoes. The perfume.

And looking at your from across the store is a really good-looking guy who'd give almost anything to ... or something equally R-rated.

You are a real, beautiful, stylish, sexy woman. You spend a good amount of time and energy to look good and it shows! That's the reason I'm writing you today. You are exactly the kind of woman who deserves to win a FREE $100 Victoria's Secret(TM) Gift Certificate.

Hey what's up? Not Much Scotty

I wanted to tell you about my website. I'm just an average guy but I get laid all the time. Wow, me too After seeing all the porn sites out there I thought it would be cool to have my own! My friends and I put together some cash and got a mini spy cam from one of those online spy stores. The camera is in my glasses and works perfectly! Then we went out and found girls to secretly film! Genius

You know what? It was a HUGE success! I couldn't believe what these sexy chicks were willing to do for a little cash and fast talking. We didn't even always give them money, they just needed to be sweet talked and told how hot they were. They were almost begging for our c@cks! And of course we filmed it all on our spycam! Of Course

What good was all this footage if it couldn't be shared? So I built a website dedicated to our sexual adventures. This is the only site filmed with hidden spy glasses! These girls don't even know they are being filmed! These aren't porn stars, they are regular babes that you'd meet at the supermarket or the bar. Come and check out our work. Every woman has her own picture gallery and full length, downloadable videos. Watch them suck our c@cks, take it in the %ss and get f$&ked silly. This site was so much fun to build, I just hope you have as much fun watching it as we did filming it!

Don't believe me? Come and check it out and watch our FREE movie samples. That's right, watch us seduce these women for free. No catch, you can see free movie samples at our site. You will be as addicted as we are.


You won't be disappointed. Our site is updated constantly. We are always on the prowl for new babes to secretly film as they suck and f#$%ck us!


You'll love it!

The government is actually BEGGING you to get smart and earn these HUGE guaranteed rates of return instead of gambling your hard-earned money on the stock market.

Fortunes are being made every day by people like you who have discovered the little known principal of making small investments in Tax Lien Certificates and leveraging them into huge returns, even as their principal, interest, and fees are guaranteed by the federal government. Special auctions for these certificates are held everyday across the country where the certificates go to the highest bidderÿFFFF85often times for pennies on the dollar!

Investment professionals have known about this high-income investment stream for generations but have kept their clients unaware so they can keep the benefits to themselves. If you know the rules, and how to locate these auctions, you can become part of a small circle, Investing side by side with Millionaires!!

as a surprise and if it might offend you without
your prior consent and writing through this channel.
I am DR.KAYODE WILLIAMS The Chairman, Contract
Awarding Committee of the ECONOMIC COMMUNITY OF WEST
AFRICAN STATES ( ECOWAS)with its contract awarding
Headquarters in Abuja, Nigeria ,I got your
information in a business directory from the Nigeria
Chamber of Commerce and Industries when I was
searching for a reliable,honest and trustworthy
person to entrust this business with.I was divinely
inspired and motivated to pick your contact from the
many names and list in the directory.

After discussing my view with my colleagues,they
were very much satisfied and decided to contact you
immediately for this mutual business relationship.We
wish to transfer the sum of US$45,000,000.00
(FOURTY FIVE Million, United States
Dollars only.)into your personal or company`s bank
account.

This fund was a residue of the over invoiced
contract bills awarded by us for the supply of
hard/softwares,phamaceauticals/medical items,light
and heavy duty vehicles, apparels and other
administrative logistics etc for the ECOMOG in
Sierria-Leone and Liberia during the Peace Keeping
Projects.

This DEAL was deliberately hatched out and carefully
protected with all concerned.As the Chairman of
CAC,I have the co-operation and mandate of the
Financial Director and the Secretary of the
Organisation.We arranged and over invoiced the
contract funds supplied by different companies from
different countries during the crisis.

It was our consensus to seek the assistance of a
willing foreigner to provide us with the facilities
to transfer this money out of West Africa.This is
borne out of our beleif in the non-stable and
sporous political nature of this sub-region.
The original contractors have been duely paid left
with the over invoiced balance.This balance is
suspended in the ecowas grand accounts awaiting
claims by any foreign company/individual of our
choice after the real contractor has been paid by OUR APEX BANK.

We intend to pay out this fund NOW as the
organisation is winding up its activities since the
aim of returning PEACE to the crises countries has
been achieved.

Based on the laws and ethics of employment,we as
civi servants working under this organisation are not
allowed to own/operate a foreign account.This is the
more reason why we needed your assistance to provide
an account that can sustain this fund for safe
keeping
and our future investment with your comprehensive
advise,assistance and partnership in your country.

we have however agreed,as the account owner in this
deal to allow you 30% of the entire sum as
compensation, 65% will be held on trust for us while
5% will be used to defray any incidental charges and
cost during the course of the transaction.

BENEFICIARY

WITH TELEPHONE AND FAX NUMBERS.

Upon the receipt of this informations, text of
application will be sent to you to fill and sent back
to the organisation in pursuant of the payment
approval.


As a practice of all organised (sensitive)and
conspired DEALS,we solicit for your unreserved
confidentiality and utmost secret in this business.
We hope to retire peacefully and lead a honourable
business life afterwards.There are no risks
involved.

NOTE
All modalities has been mapped to faclitate the
perfection of the claim on your favour on the
following conditions that will make the transaction be
possible between us.

(1).that we are satisfied/convinced on all ground that
our share of the fund would be given to us thereafter.

(2).that this transaction is treated with utmost
confidentiality,and absolute secrecy which it demands
as we have put years in civil service and would like
to retire honourably without our names been dented.

(3).that the money is being transffered to an account
where the incidence of taxation would not take much.

(4).that the financial matters for the success of this
transfer will be tackled by both parties which must be
deducted from the 5% mapped out for expenses before
proper disbursement as this is more reason why we
contacted believing you have the financial capability
to handle this project with us.

If this deal interest you,reply me immediately for
