Lijit

edit

Lijit’s search service enables readers to search blog publishers’ posts, bookmarks, blogroll, and more from a widget placed on the publisher’s property. Essentially, it becomes a single box to search any published material from a company or individual no matter where it is, be it on blogs, Flickr or other social networking sites.

Lijit’s search statistics can be utilized by publishers to better understand what users search for on a particular site when they visit, where they’re coming from, and what searches they do that return no results.

Additionally, Lijit has recently launched their own ad network, allowing publishers to opt in to revenue-sharing and to set their own prices for ad inventory.

In January 2008 Lijit acquired Big Swerve, a blog comment indexing engine that has indexed over 400 million comments across 3 million authors.
