$30 Clicks!

+ June 23, 2003

Back in November I reported on my findings that people were paying a whopping $8 for search engine clicks for the term "data recovery". I did a little checking around today and found the most expensive clicks I can comprehend: $30! So if you type this particular word into an Overture affiliated search engine (and most of them are – not Google though), and click the first couple of results, you will cause someone to pay $30 to someone else. Who is paying this much? Tort lawyers.

And now… the word: mesothelioma
