Where listings appear Listings in your LookListings campaigns appear in sponsored search results and other relevant ad placements across LookSmart's network of partner sites. Through the LookSmart Network, you have access to millions of Internet users on such sites as Lycos, Mamma.com, CNET Search, and many others. |

In my particular industry, the top level keywords bid at anywhere from $9 to $20 per click on Google, and on Look Listings I've got them for about $0.20 per click. I'm actually getting more traffic through them as well, which was unexpected.

Lots and lots of interesting litigation stuff out there ... but maybe that's all been fixed. I dunno. I haven't paid them any attention since our fraud lawsuit against them settled, years ago.

| Hehe, are we talking about LookSmart? :) From what we have as an experience for the last 2-3 years, LS listings are complete waste of money. Nearly all of their distribution partners are click fraud networks generating massive amount of artificial or incentivized traffic. Well, who knows... they may have changed now. In the past, however, I have given them several chances to prove they worth something, but only burned our ad budget there. I'll never look back at LS again.
