The Web Search Engine Challenge

Developing, maintaining and promoting a Web search engine is a very expensive undertaking. In addition to the challenges of staying on top of today’s programmatic and infrastructure challenges, one has to keep a continual eye on evolving trends to maintain audience share. Add to these difficulties the challenge of retaining control over advertising revenue, and you face a formidable business dilemma.

EXALEAD's Solution

Available under both hosted and license arrangements, EXALEAD CloudView™ provides a distinctive, deeply engaging search engine that lets you retain 100% control of your branding, your customers—and your advertising revenue. What’s more, EXALEAD CloudView is sophisticated enough to let you serve up a steady stream of innovative new Web 2.0 services, yet simple enough to be implemented in days.

Lower Your Infrastructure Costs

In addition to cutting your adverting related costs, you’ll realize immediate, significant savings in infrastructure, R&D, and maintenance costs while enjoying a crash-proof and totally efficient, totally automated service 24/7. And you don’t have to compromise on scope to realize these savings. EXALEAD CloudView places at your disposal the Web’s next largest index after Google, Yahoo! and Microsoft, encompassing 16 billion Web pages, more than 2 billion images and 4 million videos.

Retain Your Independence

Some white label search engines offer only surface integration, matching site colors and layouts but retaining a degree of branding on search forms or results. EXALEAD Websearch, on the other hand, integrates fully into your site, preserving 100% of your brand identity while providing an enhanced search experience.

In a series of direct comparisons between Google, EXALEAD and other vendors on typical queries that personnel make, the EXALEAD technology generated the best results...Only three out of the first 30 results from Google were relevant to environmental manager interests. With EXALEAD, every result was relevant.
