SEW Awards '05 - Best Shopping Search Engine
Best US Shopping Search Engine
Winner: Google's Froogle
Second Place: Yahoo Shopping & Shopping.com
Honorable Mention: PriceGrabber & Shopzilla
Froogle won with the most reader votes, 32 percent, and Yahoo Shopping had the second-most votes, 19 percent, tied with Shopping.com.
While both Froogle and Yahoo Shopping made strides in the last year, as a general rule, I think the companies with their own web search engines are lagging when it comes to shopping comparison engines.
Unlike the independent shopping engines, Froogle and Yahoo Shopping can rely on the relationship with their parent engines for plenty of traffic and, apparently, awards like Best Shopping Search Engine.
Hmmm... I might need to come up with a multi-category Shopping Comparison Engine Awards later this year to shine a light on the real work that is being done in this area.
