I have a little problem: I'm promoting a family of relatively specific products. I'm advertising on the most PPC's. What troubles me is that I'm getting a huge number of hits from blowsearch.com - when I visit it, it appears to be quite a normal meta search engine.
The number of hits is what troubles me: blowsearch sends me more than Google AdWords, Overture and FindWhat send alltogether.
So, has anybody heard where these guys pull their traffic from? Also, which PPC are they getting results from? I tracked that some of their searches are served by MyGeek, but I do not advertise there.
What also troubles me is that all the hits just request the main page, graphics, JS and does not browse anywhere else.
You may also notice on occasion that searches may take a little longer than expected, but we are pulling data from almost twenty popular engines, and if they are delayed or there is a lot of data, it will delay our search.
Well that's what they put in their blurb. In practice I found their search results meaningless. I cannot imagine that many people would get much satisfaction from using it, big NO vote here :(
