I received a couple of emails promoting the IXQUICK keyword sponsorship, with keywords available from $25 year.

Some of my keywords were available for $25, some were in the top 1,000 and cost $150

So I booked a few.

Any opinions / experience in using this?

or general opinions on IXQUICK

I use Ixquick to do quick searches for the competition on specific keyword phrases. It's pretty handy, but not for the masses, I think.

At $25 year, we buy to BLOCK

Thanks for the replies.

Buy to BLOCK - do I understand this as a strategy to stop others taking a keyword / keywords?

I bought a top-1000 keyword for $150 a couple of months ago. So far it's not sending enough visitors that I'd consider it worthwhile to renew the listing.

My opinion might change if Ixquick grows significantly, but it has a long way to go to make my "A" list.

yep - I bought some of my words/phrases too - no traffic to speak of but at least I got them and it's my name up there not my competitor's.
