Probably every one of you who has a business and a website have been approached through email or personal contact, and asked to spend money on paid search results (appear on the first page of search results, despite low SEO rank). Thus I recommend that you stick with organic search, and use SEO to raise your ranking. Marty Zwilling.

This is NOT the same as Search Engine Optimization (SEO). SEO is not placing ads, but tuning your website so that it is more highly ranked by Google, and featured in the first page of results, not in an ad beside the results. For sites displaying the ads, this is called pay per click (PPC). Cost per action (CPA). Marty Zwilling.

Scour is an offshoot of a PPC advertising firm, ABCSearch, which was also founded by Dan. We talked with Dan to learn more about Scour, how it started, what he's hoping to do with it, plus learn more about the firm's hiring plans. Those points add up to a Visa gift card. That's how I was able to fund and start ABCSearch.
