Looking to capture a larger portion of the $30 billion a year global search engine market, GenieKnows.com launched a new search engine this week aimed at gamers. According to Mark Harper, Vice President of Strategic Relations, “Our programmers were frustrated with other search engines where a search term like ‘NBA All Star’ would produce one hundred sports stories on Kobe Bryant, with our technology, you get the game-related results you’re looking for, like whether Nintendo Wii will let you shoot fadeaways in your living room.”
As part of the new site which is already live and seeing approximately 7,500 daily visitors GenieKnows.com will be launching “UGR: The Hunt For The Ultimate Games Room” contest which is part of an online scavenger hunt offering gaming gear and electronics worth $25,000.
