    Doesn't Ask.com belong to Ask Jeeves and require pay per click advertising?

    Well you never know, Microsoft was way to overconfident with its Msn search engine and didn't pay attention to Google and now look. The same goes with Internet Explorer they did't updated for years and now Firefox is way superior. All I'm saying is you can't always be to confident.

    Ask.com is #6 on my SE referrer list.

    Are they running TV commercials again?

    BTW- look at the search strings people use when searching w/ ASK.

    ie:
    I+need+information+regarding+pricing/estimation+from+****+****
    WHERE+CAN+I+BUY+AN+*****

    50 visitors from Ask and over 1000 from Google for one of my sites this month. I don't Google is worried about Ask.
