Individuals and businesses simply post natural-language inquiries, and the system immediately distributes their inquiries to registered businesses interested in responding to their requests. Users can post and respond to inquiries locally, worldwide or anywhere in between. <BR/><BR/>InverSearch allows people to quickly and easily find things based on their exact criteria. InverSearch users also have accounts in which to manage their inquiries and responses. The responses users receive are relevant results from self-identified sources. The inquiries businesses receive are credible sales leads.<BR/><BR/>An inverse search is simpler and faster than conducting a traditional Web search and does not require users to search by, or businesses to bid on, keywords or key phrases. InverSearch business users control their own advertising budgets and achieve the highest possible advertising conversion rates while connecting with potential customers.<BR/><BR/>InverSearch is immune to click fraud and the problems associated with pay-per-click advertising. Business advertising is delivered in response to consumer inquiries, not in advance of them. InverSearch utilizes a patent-pending pay-per-response model whereby business users pay only for the number of responses they make to consumer inquiries rather than for the number of hits they receive.<BR/><BR/>InverSearch provides businesses with the most credible, cost-effective means to obtain business leads, and gives consumers the easiest, most reliable way to receive relevant search results. Since businesses already respond to consumer inquiries that come from conventional business advertising, InverSearch easily replaces the online advertising businesses are already doing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9496484.post-61350730341398807692008-11-13T00:29:00.000-08:002008-11-13T00:29:00.000-08:00I lost all my life savings on Lehman stock.
