Web hosts and competition alike should take tyBit seriously because of its highly lucrative PPC (Pay-Per-Click) ad module.

If you were one of the millions of people to scroll by www.tybit.com in the last few months, then you probably know all about the new action hero and mascot “tyBit man,” the unified search method and tyBit’s unheard of commission plan. If you weren’t one of those visitors, you’d better play catch up quickly, because tyBit is revving up to take off fast and just made the cover story for Opportunity World Magazine. Now, according to company officials, anyone can have their own search engine and social network.

In mid-June, tyBit announced the first production release of the long-anticipated tyBit search engine and toolbar. The innovative new search system is on schedule for a third quarter 2008 release, when partners, affiliates and advertisers will be able to sign up and begin using the application for profit. This release will be the culmination of months and months of steadily increasing buzz, during which tyBit has been tested, researched and further pushed toward the goal of tyBit founder and CEO Clarence Briggs and his top crew of programmers, designers and marketers.

The research staff at tyBit collected both qualitative and quantitative data throughout tyBit’s six months of beta testing, and they’ve reported spectacular growth. In May 2008, tyBit searches hit an all-time high of 3.8 million, up from 3.2 million in April. According to tyBit general manager Kitti Jo Finch, “The site didn’t really go live until November 2007, and, in six months, it has achieved double-digit growth in terms of searches and traffic. I think it’s very clear now that we will be a serious player in the search space market. We anticipate we will hit 8 to 10 million searches by end of August.”

One of the many reasons why consumers, Web hosts and competition alike should take tyBit so seriously is because of its highly lucrative PPC (Pay-Per-Click) ad module. “We have 6,000 advertisers using our PPC module in beta alone,” says Finch, who expects to see a serious reaction to the affiliate advertising program once tyBit hits the market. In a lot of ways, tyBit can be likened to an underground rock band. The audience starts out small, but, as word of mouth grows, so does the fame. In the same way, the whole Internet community is slowly catching wind of what’s sure to be an amazing opportunity. And while tyBit may never sell out The Garden, it still might compose the next big hit in the search engine industry.

The tyBit Revolution

Conceptually and developmentally, tyBit is a major shift for the online search industry, moving away from the centralized search engine model to a patent-pending, decentralized application that distributes web crawling, indexing, and browser content delivery. According to Sean McCoy, chief marketing officer of the company, “tyBit will impact the search industry overnight. By enhancing the user experience, improving interactive ad ROI for advertisers and sharing 40 percent of revenue with partners who want their own private-labeled search engine, essentially, everybody will win. We now have a mobile version as well that works with over 90% of the PDA and Internet enabled phones.”
