<description><![CDATA[For some people, autumn conjures up thoughts of pumpkins, fall foliage and tweed suits. For marketers, it signals a 2-3 month stretch of excel spreadsheets, vendor reviews and endless negotiation. Yes, we are in the thick of planning season, and this year an uncertain economy will leave its mark on all line-items, search included. And even though search spending is likely to remain flat, the clever search marketer will present a refined strategy based on changing consumer tastes, as evidenced by recent search data and offline indicators.<br/><br/>1 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Other new search engines are based on probing different forms of content. Viewzi, a visual search engine launched in June, presents results in viewing options based on the type of content being sought: If you're looking for a video, you'll see a &quot;video wall&quot; of clips from YouTube Inc. , Veoh Networks Inc. , and elsewhere. Web pages are displayed as thumbnail previews, rather than text links. Viewzi also uses a cloud-like 3D interface to display sites in relation to other relevant pages.<br/><br/>2 Vote(s) ]]></description>

Viewzi, like several other new search engines, is actually a meta-search engine aggregating the results of searches from a number of primary search engines such as Google, Yahoo, and other resources.

Where Viewzi is unique is its presentation technique called &quot;views.&quot;<br/><br/>1 Vote(s) ]]></description>

Try searching for a song on SearchMe, and you're more likely to get a Wikipedia page than an MP3. Viewzi, a startup out of Texas, is looking to offer a more adaptive visual search that can radically change in both appearance and function depending on the search term.<br/><br/>5 Vote(s) ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[If you are in the business of internet marketing, you have noticed that many conventional internet marketing strategies do not work as effectively anymore. Searchers are delivered irrelevant results by the computers that run the big three search engines. Internet users are blocking pop ups and rarely see them any more. They ignore banner ads and even cpc ads that were all the rage not too long ago barely make an impact. What is an internet marketer to do when all the tried and true internet marketing methods seem to have fallen by the wayside? Well they should embrace a new marketing outlet, thats what, and there just happens to be a new method that has not lost its edge, yet.<br/><br/>1 Vote(s) ]]></description>
