Press Release Summary = Internet marketing research made in the form of an online
poll on reputable Google discussion forum showed that up to one third of loyal
Google users can quit using its service.

Press Release Body = During the Internet marketing research for reciprocal link
exchange tool by the Internet marketing department of DesktopMoney Ltd a poll on
reputable Google discussion forum was launched, and poll results show that up to two
thirds of loyal Google users can quit using its service.

On June 19, 2006 on WebProWorld forum (#2 position in Google for \'google discussion
forum\' keyphrase) was started the poll asking forum members the alternative
question:

With recent Google\'s search behaviour will you...
(a) Continue using Google?
(b) Switch to Yahoo?
(c) Switch to MSN?
(d) Switch to Yahoo and MSN?
(e) Use big G, Yahoo and MSN together for better quality?

After 7 days poll running on the forum, the poll thread got 2,300+ views, 80+
replies and 75 forum members who actively voted on one of the poll options.

The full poll results dated June 26, 2006 show that:
(a) 33%
(b) 12%
(c) 9%
(d) 16%
(e) 29%

The results of the poll showed that Google can lose a big share of its most loyal
users, those who preferably use Google, if this search engine does not manage to
settle all Big Daddy and other improvements as soon as possible, providing new level
of search results.

33% of the voted agreed to continue using Google with its current level of search
results. Other people used the alternative of using Yahoo and/or MSN, or three
majors together. As three major include also Google, we can extract a pure one third
of users who will quit doing searches with Google.

Remark should be made that WebProWorld forum is the place where specific, niche
Internet users dwell, mostly including webmasters, site owners who seek for
promotional help, Internet marketers, programmers, designers and other users who are
actively interested in learning more information about search engines, marketing,
site design, e-commerce, IT. That is why the result of the poll cannot represent
global average response of all Internet users.
