Hi does anyone know if searchboss.com pulls search results from other PPC search engines? or is it its own PPC search engine? if so how much traffic do they have?

Looks pretty green. I don't think I would use it! The about link is a 404. And the site is hosting on Windows. The most not have traffic at all. I give them a few months before they are out of business.

I know the guys at Search Boss, met them at the SF SES Conference last year. Great bunch of guys.

Search Boss is just one product offering, of an experienced Internet Company, that has been around for several years. I don't know why Lisa_Lia would throw the comment that they would be out of business in a few months...

Goto/Overture was "very" obscure for Most of 1998-1999. If you go read posts about Goto/Overture at "that other forum", dated when Goto had just launched, you will see that most posters jumped on the "trash Goto.com" bandwagon, saying they would never make it. And what a worthless venture Goto.com was.. :)

Rawhide Internet Services, Inc has been around for 15 years. Into lots of stuff - software productivity - college textbooks. They have the right to dip their foot into the PPC game and they have some resources.

I understand that they have a feature where you can select the partner sites you want your ads to show up on.

404 on the "about" thing will be fixed today - I'll bet.

Just looked at the site. Clean look about it.

The top Nav is a complete mess.

I like the preview button. I am assuming you don't pay if you use this. Then I realised that you can navigate through the site in the preview page.

If my assumption is correct then this PPC model is floored.

Then again I suppose I should wait until then navigation is fixed and stop making assumption.
