eZanga – Rising Competition for Google

Monday, January 4th, 2010

Pete Barlas’ recent article on Yahoo News titled ‘Rising Competition Slows Growth for Google’s Online Ad Network’ cites eZanga as an effective alternative for online advertisers looking to move away from networks like Google. The article also can be found at Investors.com in its ‘technology’ section.

“Picky advertisers have been good news for eZanga,” the article states. “The company is one of the many search engines besides the big three. It also has an ad network of 20,000 Web sites that carry its search ads. There is much overlap, with Web sites often carrying ads from multiple networks.”

eZanga founder and CEO Rich Kahn is quoted in the article, discussing the advantages advertisers gain by using eZanga’s network – namely cheaper rates than the competition.

“Our network is growing simply from the fact that people can buy traffic on our network for less money,” he said. “We are seeing (advertisers) looking to the alternative search engines for lower costs per click so that they can reduce their costs.”

eZanga Celebrates 2009 With Holiday Party

Tuesday, December 22nd, 2009

Capping off an incredible year, the eZanga staff celebrated in style this past weekend at La Casa Pasta with its annual holiday party. The celebration was a prime example of the eZanga motto: work hard, play hard and eat hard.

eZanga owners Rich and Beth Kahn certainly “worked hard”, spending hours upon hours working on their masterpiece of a video which chronicled the people, places and events that made 2009 a banner year. We said hello to new faces and a new office, waved goodbye to the past and looked excitedly to the future.

A number of snazzy-dressed eZanga employees “worked” and “played hard” on the dance floor, providing an abundant amount of entertainment for those smart enough to remain on the sidelines.

Of course, everyone was treated to a fantastic assortment of appetizers and entrees from the great staff at La Casa Pasta, ensuring that the staff and their guests would undoubtedly “eat hard” all night.

And it would not be a holiday party with a visit from the big guys from the North Pole. That’s right, two Kris Kringles’ showed up to deliver goodies to all eZanga staff members, regardless if they were naughty or nice this past year.

All in all, it was a celebration no one will soon forget – and thanks to the brand new photo gallery on eZanga’s Facebook Fan Page, it won’t so make sure you head over to the page and check it out and become a fan of eZanga if you have not done so already.

The Nuts and Bolts of Metasearch Engines

Monday, November 23rd, 2009

For years now, eZanga.com has been one of the premier metasearch engines on the web.

Thursday, Adotas.com, a website which focuses on the businesses of online advertising and media, featured a commentary on metasearch by eZanga.com founder and CEO Rich Kahn which aims to answer all questions. Rich lends his near two decades worth of expertise on the industry in his piece entitled “The Nuts and Bolts of Metasearch Engines.”

Rich dives in to topics such as “good data” and “bad data”, what sets certain metasearch engines from each other and why metasearch engines are appealing to marketers on the web.

The article was also linked to from the “Search Engines” section of Business Week’s Business Exchange, a web site featuring business-related topics from around the world. Check out all of what Rich had to say and be sure to check back with eZanga News for more information on appearances, mentions and all the goings-on at eZanga.com!
