Although the two a fierce competitors they share more common bonds then some people might realize. Both were created by students at Stanford University.

The pair originally called Yahoo! “Jerry’s guide to the World Wide Web” but later changed the name to Yahoo!, commemorating the word the Jonathan Swift defined in his classic novel Gulliver’s Travels. In the book Swift stated that the word was “rude, unsophisticated, uncouth.” Four years after Yang and Filo had created Yahoo! and introduced it to the world (at this time it was a internet mogul) two different Stanford University students, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, created their own search engine, Google, as a research project, the date was September seventh 1998. Google started out as the search engine used on Stanford University’s website before it went public on August 19, 2004. When 2006 ended Google was the leading internet search engine, it enjoyed over 50.8% of the market.

By the time it was a year old Yahoo! had had over a million hits, the sheer number of people who had found and were using Yahoo! prompted it creators to incorporated their creation in May of 1995. Yahoo! went public on April 12 1996 were it earned a total of 2.6 million dollars.

If you have just built a website to sell items from, be they electronic products or “real” products, you might like to try pay per click search advertising to get the ball rolling on your sales.

It can take some time for your other search engine optimisation tactics, like keywords in your text and backlinks, to kick in on the search engines,  int he meantime you can use pay per click to get customers to your site.

One of the great things about pay per click advertising is that you can use it to guage how well a product is going to do on the market – it’s very useful for market testing – by using just a few keywords, you can work out how well your particular niche translates traffic into actual sales, and find out which keywords are more likely to attract buyers.  This information is invaluable for building a SEO and backlink campaign.

ACS have a great whitepaper available for you to check out with more in depth information on pay per click advertising than I have had time to write about here.  They also have pay per click management services which will be beneficial to the new user and can help optimise your campaign to ensure you get the most bang for you buck.

Everyone and anyone who has ever used an internet search engine knows the value and frustration of the searches and search engine optimization, it doesn’t matter if you are someone trying to use a search engine to identify a specific piece of information or if you are a business person trying to break into the global ecommerce market, we all have some sort of complaint about internet searches.

These days when we need information we no longer go to the local library and throw ourselves at the reference librarian. Now when we need information we boot up our personal computers, connect to the internet, and access our favorite search engine and type in the keywords that should access the necessary information. Thrilled, we scan the long list of potential hits, it looks like its going to be an easy research project. Cheerfully, you click on the link for the first website, and then the second, and then the third. Each website is filled with gobbely gook that bears little resemblance to the information you are looking for. Taking a deep breath you return to the search engine’s homepage and reenter your keywords, jumbling the order of the words, thinking that maybe this time you’ll get a hit. Once again you get nothing but a bunch of gobbely gook. You run search after search after search. You try a variety of search engines, other then a few advertisements you get very little information about what you’re looking for.
