The Other Search Engines

**hugoguzman** · 02-18-2004, 10:46 PM

I've heard from various sources that yahoo is starting to base their searches on the inktomi search engine. Has anyone submitted to inktomi (or fast) and if so, what kind of results have you gotten?

Basically, I want to know whether or not it's worth my time to submit (costs $39 per url). Also, if you have experience with this topic:
is it worthwhile to submit more than one url?

This is what I saw from MarketLeap about Inktomi Search Submit:

Quote:

Yahoo! Search has transitioned to its own search technology (Inktomi, a Yahoo! company) and is preparing to launch a new inclusion program. As a bonus for Search Submit customers, Yahoo! Search is providing a free trial of Yahoo! traffic that will end on April 15, 2004. When the new inclusion program launches, Search Submit customers will have the option of joining the new program for ongoing participation in Yahoo! Search results.
