I found this [insite.lycos.com...] They want me to find out more by signing up. So instead of signing up, I am going to ask the question here. Is this real? Or is this just Lycos re-selling findwhat listings?

I have a Lyocs account just like the url you are referencing. It's actually the same tool as Findwhat, but I guess the ads are somehow displayed on Lycos partner sites.

I get very little traffic; even on very highly competitive terms.

Bottom line try it; don't expect much activity.

Thank you BostonSEo. But is this lycos PPC just findwhat traffic beign re-sold? I mean I would try it, but I already have 3 findwhat accounts, and if it is just findwhat traffic, I am already receiving that. Sorry if it may seem like my question was already answered...

Not entirely sure to be honest. I bid on the same terms on findwhat and this lycos account. Much less volume on the lycos account.

I get about 1-2 conversion from Lycos every month. It's very small traffic - however, there seems to be very little fraud in the system, probably because it's not resold to any 3rd parties (which is also why it has so little traffic).
