Moonmist Search
Ltd, UK based developers of Moonmist Metasearch; today announced
its partnership with Infospace, Inc (Nasdaq:INSP), to provide Business
and People search facilities to Moonmist Users.
Infospaces' Ultimate Search product has been integrated into the
Moonmist Metasearch website to provide Moonmist users with expanded
search capabilities. Before the new partnership, users had been
able to conduct Metasearches of top Search Engines and Directories
from a growing number of countries around the world. The addition
of Business and People search facilities further increases the search
sources available to Moonmist users.
"The integration of Infospaces' search products into Moonmist
greatly increases the usefulness of Moonmist to our growing user
base" said Carl Wright, Director of Moonmist Search Ltd. "We
have been focused on providing search results from the top Internet
search engines but had never been able to offer business, email
or telephone directory searching, which is a natural area of expansion
for us."
Moonmist searches up to 19 Search Engines and Directories simultaneously,
returning the top 10 results from each engine. The results are then
aggregated into a result set using a proprietary algorithm.
The relationship further enhances Moonmist's commitment to building
a comprehensive source of search facilities, giving users a broader
choice of search capabilities as well as introducing them to lesser-known
facilities.
"It's been our intention to gradually expand the options available
to our users" adds Wright. "With the number of users online
growing daily, we have tried to offer the widest range of products
to the broadest markets, and with the addition of Infospaces' Ultimate
Search we can significantly expand our offering."
Other Infospace partners offering Ultimate Search products include
Netscape, AOL, Thompson Directories and The Telegraph.
