Product Description
Circos.com, Inc. helps consumers find the products and services that best match their lifestyle. While other search engines return thousands of web pages, Circos.com returns a targeted set of qualified brands, ranked by their performance against consumers’ personal preferences. Whether you’re a dad looking for movies both you and your kids will love, a foodie wanting restaurants the locals rave about, or a savvy traveler looking for the hippest hotel, Circos.com finds the best answer for you.
Market Opportunity
eMarketer estimates that U.S. retail e-commerce sales will reach $131 billion in 2007 and according to Forrester Research, 71% of online consumers read reviews on products and services. Consumers reading these reviews are a highly-qualified audience for advertising and affiliate marketing opportunities.
DEMO Says
Spend more than a minute in the Circos engine and you realize the power of what the company has developed — a search service that mines insight from user-generated content and delivers complex answers to questions that search hasn’t previously been able to answer. Users no longer search for ‘nice’ hotels but instead for ‘funky, hip and happening.’ Eventual expansion into additional verticals — consumer electronics, pharmaceuticals, any segment with a wide variety of variables – makes Circos.com one to watch in the hotly competitive search market.
