Yahoo's Mobile Search, Take Two
2008-04-03 07:47:00 Yahoo is living up to claims it's going about business as usual, despite the uncertainty of Microsoft's controversial buyout offer. At this week's big CTIA Wireless show, Yahoo announced version 2.0 of its oneSearch mobile search service and enhancements designed to improve search on mobile devices.The stakes in the burgeoning mobile market are huge. For example, mobile advertising revenue was $347 million in the U.S. in 2007, according to IDC estimates. But the research firm forecast that total could grow to $4 billion by 2011 and there is not yet a dominant player as Yahoo rival Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) is in desktop search.The iPhone changed a lot of people's view of mobile devices once they saw you can truly access the Internet on your phone," Joy Ghaneker, product manager for Yahoo oneSearch, told InternetNews.com. "Now we want to be a catalyst to enable hundreds of millions of users to see what can be done on a mobile device."Yahoo (NASDAQ:YHOO) launched oneSearch last year as...

Mobile search developments
2008-02-13 10:25:00 There were a couple of developments yesterday in the world of mobile marketing which could be seen as pretty significant. Firstly came the use that T-mobile had awarded its mobile search contract to Yahoo! following their heavy investment in mobile technology. This further adds to Yahoo!s weight in the mobile sector as they already power the search for 3 and have mobile advertising available through the Vodafone live network. Yahoo! have obviously bought in heavily to mobile marketing and are pushing hard to make it work. They possibly see it as one area where they can get one up on Google away from the search arena. 2008 could be a big year for mobile and as always, the early bird will catch the worm and if Yahoo! can become the front runner in this field they could reap the rewards. On the same day it was announced that five of the big mobile operators are joining forces to create a measurement system for mobile advertising. Vodafone, O2, T-Mobile, Orange and 3 have formed a...

Google releases enhanced mobile search in the UK
2008-01-31 09:28:00 Mobile search is the "next big thing" and all search engines are investing heavily in their technology to deliver search services in better ways to a mobile/local user. Yesterday, Google announced the release of an improved mobile search interface for the UK market. One of its main features is the ability to remember your location for certain types of searches. This means that you don't need to add the location in the search term (e.g. bike shopPortsmouth ). In other words, once you have entered your post code or city as your location, any searches that Google considers to have "local intent" will be restricted to businesses closest to you. This is great news as we have been anticipating this type of behaviour when working with our Local SEO clients for some time. But it's interesting to see what Google currently considers as a "local" type of search. First of all, you can't set your "local" location in the &quo...
