VIENNA, VA--(Marketwire - November 17, 2008) - Web site publishers and application developers
looking for a foothold in the booming local search market can now turn to
ContentReach™, an on-demand query-processing application launched today
by Localeze and Intelligenx. Through ContentReach, subscribers can present
search results on websites and mobile applications according to their own
preferences for look, feel and search logic. Developed by Localeze, the
largest online content manager serving local search engines, businesses and
consumers, and Intelligenx, a leading provider of search technology,
ContentReach is offered as part of Localeze's core suite of services and
can be used to drive traffic and enable incremental advertising revenue
opportunities.
ContentReach is powered by the Intelligenx Discovery Engine® and offers
online publishers the option to outsource a highly intelligent search
engine backed by a managed database of premium business listings. The
application filters, selects, ranks, builds and returns the most relevant
results, providing users with on-demand access to as many as 16 million
local business listings. These functions are seamlessly executed via a
direct interface with the Localeze Business Registry, a robust relational
database containing premium Localeze business listing content, including
Gold Sourced content, verified by local businesses themselves.
"Developing and deploying an intelligent local search engine is a time
consuming, expensive and technology intensive endeavor," said Jeff Beard,
president and general manager of Localeze. "ContentReach substantially
lowers barriers to entry into the local search marketplace, and is a fast
cost-effective way for enterprises to deliver relevant local search results
to consumers. This application will increase the ability for local search
stakeholders to drive repeat user visits, build brand loyalty and thereby
stimulate opportunities for advertising revenue."
"User demand for fast, relevant local results is increasing everyday and so
the accuracy, depth and presentation of local search results must
constantly increase," said Zubair Talib, CTO of Intelligenx. "Our
partnership with Localeze is a natural one and allows ContentReach to offer
search results unsurpassed in relevance and quality via a flexible
platform."
