He said, not search engine services are opposed, but contextual ad platforms such as AdSense and AdWords.
According to him, saol business search engine, Google is Jagonya. No one doubts. Even people in Sitti also admire the greatness of Google. He said, Google is a profit not for search engines, but because revenue from ads that can be networked context-sensitive ad serving web pages or search results Internet users visited.
"Contextual advertising is a fight Sitti from Google," said Andy Sjarif. But, of course not all of which were targeted because only users Sitti website or blog in Indonesian language which were targeted at this time. He was confident, Sitti-made machine can compete with Google, especially for web pages and blogs speak Indonesian.
To test the ability of the engine, Sitti working with local web site for more than a month, starting from 1 October to 5 November 2010.In that time, Sitti managed to index the 600 million Indonesian-language Web pages and displays ads from the 529 330 mark.
Not only that, Sitti also put the same ad to Google's AdWords service with the same period and the same keyword. This is to find a comparison and measure how effective the machine Sitti serving ads contextually appropriate web pages you've visited.
