I’ve Got A Search Engine, You’ve Got A Thousand Bucks, Want Some Keywords?

  • LeapFish has launched a meta search engine today in hopes to be the next Mamma.com success story (or not). 
  • With the launch, the company is already contacting potential advertisers to buy keywords for top positions in their search results.
  • The price is a publicly disclosed flat fee of $1000 per keyword and a yearly fee of 5% of whatever you spend. 
  • The concept as with any meta engine makes sense (integrate blogs, images, multiple search engine results, etc), but who the hell uses them? 
  • The only meta engine that has been useful to me has been SearchGuy.com, and only because I made a bunch of money on their stock in 2001. (went from $0.08 to around $1.00)
