Looking for a list of top search engines that offer pay per click
advertising and/or banner advertising we know about
google/overture/kanoodle/findwhat/sex.com and lycos
is there any other large ones out there?

Hello Joe,

Q. Are there any other large PPC search engines out there?

Yes - and tons of them. I'll list a few of the big ones here, and
offer a link to a site that reviews over 350 more of them. (Yes 350
:-) I noticed you said large, so I'll list those, and let you judge
the rest, as some are small, but formidable.

This following link allows you to see traffic statistics for most of
the engines. Here's the page that ranks the pages by volume of
traffic, and where I pulled these 10 from:

Alexa stats from Pay Per Click Search Engines

I hope the extensive list gives you enough to start with. I really
didn't need a search strategy to find these resources, as I have used
this site in the past. If you wanted to find more sites like this, you
could search Google for:

I hope this answers your question. Should you need clarification or
more resources, please ask before rating, as I would love to help

Thanks for the great question -

Almost forgot -

Brainfox is listed on the site I gave you, but here it is again, as it
is a rather well put together PPC search engine:

Just wanted to add a comment about Brainfox.  Their signup is very
enticing.  I put in $50 and they matched the initial deposit with
$125.00.  So, I started with $175.00 and bid on the word 'posters' at
the number TWO position.  Overture had about a 250,000 searches for
the keyword 'posters' last month - a fairly popular search term.  The
current balance in my account is $174.88. Two clicks in 30 days. =(
