I thought I’d have a crack at the new http://www.cuil.com search engine today. The first thing I did was search (obviously) for “Project Management Software”. Check out the results!
http://www.cuil.com/search?q=Project+Management+Software
As you can imagine I was pretty brassed off to see our logo linking to a competitor’s URL and the same thing happening with another ad. Check out the screenshot above (Click for a larger image).
I don’t know what’s going on here, but I’m unimpressed and will be emailing them this blog post link as it’s just ridiculous to have one company’s logo linking to another company’s URL.
So have a search around, check your own phrases and make sure Cuil isn’t doing the same to your company image. Let me know if you find any other dodgy results.
