Suite
of Tools to Automate Campaign Management.
FORT
MYERS, Fla.- FindWhat.com
(NASDAQ: FWHT), a leading developer and provider
of performance-based marketing services for the
Internet, today announced the bundling of a suite
of high-powered automated tools, branded FindWhat.com
CruiseControl(TM), that will help make FindWhat.com
campaign management easier, faster, and more robust.
FindWhat.com
also announced that, effective September 1, 2003,
its minimum bid price will increase from $0.01
to $0.05.
FindWhat.com
CruiseControl includes: FindWhat.com
AutoBid(TM), a potent new tool that maximizes
the amount of FindWhat.com Network traffic to
advertisers' websites, for the lowest prices possible,
by automatically optimizing keyword bids; FindWhat.com
AdAnalyzer(TM), a robust post-click analytical
tool that gives advertisers complete control over
the success of their online advertising campaign
with FindWhat.com
by showing their actual return on investment (ROI)
by keyword and by campaign; FindWhat.com Campaign
Scheduler, an innovation that allows FindWhat.com
advertisers to schedule when their FindWhat.com
campaigns will run; and FindWhat.com
AutoReplenish(TM), a practical tool that ensures
advertisers receive qualified traffic to their
websites from their FindWhat.com
keyword ad campaign without interruption. CruiseControl
is free to FindWhat.com
advertisers. As of September 1, 2003, advertisers
who wish to continue to benefit from the CruiseControl
suite of tools will need to have signed up for
FindWhat.com
CruiseControl and FindWhat.com
AutoReplenish.
"CruiseControl
is the ideal suite of tools to help advertisers
manage their FindWhat.com
campaigns," said Phillip Thune, COO/CFO of
FindWhat.com.
"Effectively, advertisers can set their parameters
for bids and timing, and then let their FindWhat.com
campaigns run on an automated basis. They know
that they are continually driving traffic to their
websites with the best positioning available to
them given their maximum bid prices and budget.
At any time they can, at a glance, look at their
ROI metrics and make adjustments to their campaigns."
FindWhat.com's
minimum bid price increase in September will not
affect current FindWhat.com
advertisers who take advantage of a grandfather
clause. Advertisers can lock in $0.01 to $0.04
bids before September 1, and will be permitted
to maintain those bids so long as they do not
change those bid amounts after September 1. Advertisers
will, however, be able to change the text in their
titles, descriptions, and URLs after September
1, without affecting the grandfathered status
of their sub-$0.05 keyword bids.
