February 19, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
A young, Dutch Internet company, led by 29-year old entrepreneur Wouter Broekman, started paving a road that will change the world of vertical search engines forever. By creating ElvisFind.com, a portal for everything on the Web related to Elvis Presley, a concept was born that has been dubbed "an example of ultimate verticality" by experts from the 100 most influential people in the world on the Internet.Taking the challenge, the company "Ultimate Verticality" was started, with a dream: to become the worldwide leading expert in topical search engines. After 6 years of non-sponsored investment and work in evenings and weekends, ElvisFind.com and it's sister portal, StarsOnTheNet.com, form a reasonable outline of the way UltimateVerticality (UV) wants to map the Internet.
In a UV-portal, a visitor must be able to find everything on the Internet about his specific interest, with no more than 5 mouse clicks. This can range from websites to news, downloads and lyrics, new and interesting products, streaming audio and video, references and categories. Of course, supported by an in-house developed search engine and site directory, plus custom-built automated back-end to do most of the non-moderated maintenance work. The portal even comes with it's own Google(tm)-style toolbar, to bring the subject of choice even closer to the end-user.
Another unique feature of UV portals such as ElvisFind.com is it's active role toward the webmasters who submit their sites. By offering articles, tips, resources, advice, reviews or analysis/PR work for subject-related websites, UV brings the lessons from it's own learning curve and experience to support webmasters worldwide.
ElvisFind.com has been praised in international media such as USA Today, MSNBC.com, URLWire.com and The Net for it's "simple, but brilliant" way of bringing subject-related information to an audience.
If time, money and ambitions form no obstacle, Ultimate Verticality wants to continue changing the landscape of vertical search engines, by continuously improving it's portals features and content. Since achieving this is no sinecure with a one-man business in spare time, interested parties can contact UltimateVerticality.com for possible cooperation.
