I remember an article on Search engines a while back in a PC magazine (may have been PC World) where they searched for Kiwi phrases and identities. Google came out on top in all categories. www.google.com Cheers GG	Guest (0)

I think you'll find it is very fast and will give you great results even when compared to the likes of Google, although we also offer Google for international searches as part of our service. We like to think that the results you get from SearchNOW speak for themselves, especially when you compare them to other search engines, both NZ and international. Happy Searching!!
