Is GoTo now Free?

[nell]

I don't see any bidded listings on GoTo. The top listings are DMOZ from AOL.
What's going on out there?

[nell]

No more GoTo listings appear on AOL "sponsored sites".

GoTo paid listings are back but not showing on AOL. Honest, I DID NOT have lunch with "Jack Daniels" or "Jimmy Walker" today.

Maybe your computer did ;)

It is now.

Goto rep just told me that the paid listings went down around 3pm EST on Friday, June 1 2001, and they hope to have the system back up and running by around 5pm EST Friday, June 1, 2001. In the meantime, I really hate seeing my competitor sit at the top of the list. Grrr.

Read in another forum that at least one person's paid listings have not disappear. Mine have and are not up at this time on GoTo. I checked Lycos and AV - up at Lycos and down at AV.

[Travoli]

yep, let me revise. My listings are:

Goto = down

affiliates:
Excite = down
Hotbot = up
Altavista = up
MSN = up
NBCi = up

Kinda weird how they are down on their own site.

There are no GoTo on AOL *or* Netscape today.

GoTo itself is fluctuating between showing bids and not showing bids today...

Hello WebChicken

It is a server problem that they are aware of and should have it fixed shortly.

I know that not all of Goto's pals use the adult keywords that have been bid for in the top 3 search results - which ones do and which ones don't?

[Mike_Mackin]

AOL does NOT list sites of interest to the more mature surfer.
