An Australian company to target Google in Search Engine Market.

ZDnet Australia

The company, Mooter Search, claims it will differentiate itself by offering "users a more intelligent and 'humanised' approach to finding information" in a grab for the growing online search market.

In what it claims is an implementation of "artificial intelligence", the Mooter search engine groups together information in logical clusters, which is designed to save time. "We have built a powerful, smarter search engine that enables our users to do more ... with considerably less hassle," the company's chief executive officer, Liesl Capper, said in a statement.

"Mooter focuses on the psychology of people, not machines," the CEO added.

Mooter Search plans to include a paid listings service with its engine, Capper confirming that the company was "a few weeks off" finalising deal with a provider.

Capper remained tight-lipped about which provider Mooter has entered negotiations with but its probable that LookSmart Australia and Overture are near the top of the list of contenders.

According to Capper, Mooter Search's technology has been designed to anticipate advertiser needs for more "discriminating traffic".

"Rather than just pay for any old click were hoping to attract users that are smarter; have been on the Web for a while ... basically focus hard on those sorts of eyeballs," she said.

Winning the deal would be a shot in the arm for LookSmart which recently lost around 60 percent of its revenue when NineMSN's United States portal ended its partnership with the company.
