Espotting signs deal with Ask Jeeves

Espotting.com, Europe's fastest growing search provider, today announced a deal with Ask Jeeves UK, the UK's premier online question-answering service.

Espotting's search results will appear within Ask Jeeves' meta search results, giving Ask Jeeves' 2.6 million unique users a broader search choice.

Espotting's search results are determined by advertisers bidding on search terms - in an online, real-time auction - that are relevant to their site. The higher an advertiser bids, the higher they are listed.

"We are delighted to announce yet another affiliate deal," commented Daniel Ishag, Founder and CEO of Espotting. "The editorial quality control inherent in Espotting's search model and the fact that we offer UK results means that there are strong synergies between the two search engines."

Will Harding, Director of Business Development at Ask Jeeves UK, said that the deal with Espotting added a valuable dimension to the capabilities of the high-profile search engine. "Our aim is to simplify people's lives by giving fast, relevant answers to their questions online. We approached Espotting to include them as a meta search partner because we believe they can add real value to the overall experience we provide at Ask Jeeves" Harding said.
