I'd be interested in any other software vendors opinion of this item received from Search400. Bear in mind that our company is a search400 customer - we place banner ads with them. Does this not sound like a form of blackmail? >Search400.com has had vendors approach us about buying search keywords >that are their competitors' company name or product name. Here's a >fictional example -- Microsoft might buy the keywords "IBM" and >"AS/400" so that all user searches on these terms will result in a >Microsoft banner above Web results relevant to IBM and AS/400. >This is not an uncommon occurrance on other search engines. For >example, Yahoo regularly sells keyword banners associated with company >names to either the company or their competitors. >Before we begin to accept these orders, we want to offer you the >opportunity to lock up the keywords for the name of your company and >products. We've developed a special vendor keyword package where you >can buy your company name and three of your company's product names for >only $250 per month. This special is effective until December 31st. >If you're interested in taking advantage of this special offer please >call me or reply to this email. We will not accept any insertion >orders for competitive "keyword" names until January.
