Web Informers Web Informers ©2005 | Search Engines - How Does Overture Work?
 


Overture

Overture is a search engine that auctions its rankings. In other words, the more you pay per click (PPC) on your results link, the higher your ranking. For each keyword phrase, advertisers bid against each other for placement within the search results. Below the paid listings, Overture gives additional results that are provided by Inktomi.

To appear on Overture, you must first open an account and deposit money (credit card accepted). Once you have an account, fill out the Overture Simple Signup form. In the form, you should bid on the keyword phrases where you want your site to be listed. Also, specify a title (max 40 characters) and a description (max 190 characters).

Your title and description can vary for each keyword, even if linked to the same page. Remember that the keywords that you bid on must be related to your linked page. To be listed below the paid listing section (free listings), you should submit your site to Inktomi.

NOTE: We are participating in the Overture Ambassador program which empowers us as Overture Partners to manage multiple client accounts under a single login. We have been trained by Overture on creating optimal titles and descriptions, and on managing bid programs.

We are also offering, "Who's Clicking Who", a PPC auditing tool designed to facilitate the tracking and use of various PPC programs.

The thing to remember is that you must have suitable URL content and be engineered to beat your competition within Overture before you register your pages. Just registering with Overture does not assure a suitable ranking.
