Ask.comBack in October, Ask.com kind of got some bad rep over possibly using Google AdWords for arbitrage purposes.

I explained the story in detail back then but I wanted to share the poll results of almost 400 responses asking you if you felt Ask.com is an Arbitrage Engine.

The answer broke out like this:

  • 57% said no
  • 40% said yes
  • 4% said not sure

Ask.com Arbitrage Poll

Forum discussion continued at WebmasterWorld.

This story was scheduled to be posted today and was not written today.
