InfoSpace extends agreement with Google

InfoSpace today announced it has extended its agreement to distribute Google search results through its network of Web search properties and partner Web sites until 2006.

The agreement includes distribution of Google's award-winning indexed Web search results, as well as targeted advertising from the Google AdWords™ Program.

"We're pleased to continue providing InfoSpace with targeted advertising and award-winning search technology, distributing Web search results and relevant advertising to the millions of users who visit InfoSpace's properties and partner Web sites each month," said Omid Kordestani, Google's senior vice president of Worldwide Sales and Field Operations.

"Our relationship with InfoSpace increases the value we provide to our advertising customers by extending their reach to InfoSpace Web search users at a variety of popular sites across the Internet."

"We have worked hard to build a valuable channel for our search provider partners by developing first-rate products and signing agreements to power Web search at some of the most popular sites on the Internet," said Brian McManus, executive vice president, Search and Directory, at InfoSpace, Inc.

"The extension of our agreement with Google reflects the success of these efforts and will help us to continue delivering top quality search results to our users."

InfoSpace's metasearch technology searches the Web's leading engines and delivers the best results from each. The company's Dogpile search engine has received favorable reviews recently in the search industry and technology press.

In a feature titled "Web Stars: Best of the Web" in the February 2004 issue of PC World, Dogpile was named first runner-up in the Search Engines category, behind category winner Google. In addition, the Dogpile Toolbar took top honors in the Browser Toolbar Plug-Ins category to win a "PC World Best Bet Award."

Also in February, influential search industry newsletter Search Engine Watch named Dogpile "Best Metasearch Engine." Dogpile won the category both in the popular vote and with Search Engine Watch editors Danny Sullivan and Chris Sherman.

InfoSpace Web search is offered through the Company's three search properties, Dogpile (www.dogpile.com), WebCrawler (www.webcrawler.com) and MetaCrawler (www.metacrawler.com), as well as the sites of leading distribution partners.
