1st February 2002 - CommonName and popular search engine Espotting.com today announced their partnership providing German and French users access to Espotting keyword search results. This partnership further enhances the suite of CommonName services which facilitate direct web navigation and email communication by use of common names and keywords rather than lengthy URLs and domain names.
Subsequent to the deal, German and French users have access to highly relevant, localised keyword search results when they enter a generic search query into their CommonName toolbar or via the CommonName website.
CommonName’s CEO, Yurong Lin, said that "While CommonName is a truly global service, we have always placed great importance on the ability to deliver local content, in a native language. Our partnership with Espotting has made this possible for our users in key European markets."
"This partnership signifies another important step in the progression of the CommonName service for users - CN is not just your internet identity, it's become your powerful search platform" states Yurong Lin, CommonName's CEO.
The deal also further establishes Espotting Media as one of Europe’s leading search content providers, with a presence in the UK, Germany and France. As a result of exclusive affiliate deals with other major European portals and search engines, such as the Lycos Network, AltaVista and Ask Jeeves, they are the market leaders in all three territories.
