We love Google at UFindus

Google has just been voted the UK’s No.1 brand.

 

The survey,which takes into account the opinions of 1500 professionals within the industry,has seen the BBC get bumped off the top spot where they have been for the past year.

Voting on 500 brands the panel elected the internet Goliath as number one brand and shunted the Beeb down to 4th place.

This follows on from a poll last year which officially recognised Google as the worlds best known brand.

Looking round the UFindUs office it is rare that there will be any other homepage showing apart from Google so I don’t think that this latest accolade for them will be a big surprise. However what you also should look at is the fact that in the top 50 the average age of the ”brand” was 90 years old, Google is the only one in the top 50 which was founded after 1990!

How about that for the power of the internet. 

UFindUs – a sure fire winner

Last week UFindUs.com received another internet accolade form Hitwise. Hitwise are recognised within the industry for the accuracy of their data and are part of the Experian group. 

Having been acknowledged in 2006 as well, we have now taken 7th place in the top ten sites receiving the most web traffic for the category of Business and Finance directories.  It is a tremendous achievement and proves that UFuindUs may not be a site which will win brand awareness awards but when it comes to doing the business we keep on performing.

The interent is a an odd place and very often if a business should even be bothered to ask where the customer heard about them the answer will be I found you on the internet. More accurately it should be “I found your listing on UFindUs” or “I got your number from your website (which has achieved high rankings courtesy of UFindUs).

That aside we are concentrating on maintaining our top 10 position,and, with the rapid surge in traffic that the other Customer Street sites like Smile Local and More UK are seeing its a real win win situation for CustomerStreet customers.
