MIVA brings together FindWhat.com, Espotting Media, Miva Corporation, Comet Systems and B&B Advertising. One company. One brand. One mission. To help businesses grow. In short, MIVA means business. Our mission is to 'Help Your Business Grow'. The MIVA Vision The world of advertising and marketing is undergoing a radical metamorphosis, and MIVA is at the forefront of this paradigm change. To understand why we are in this leadership position, you must step back in time. Several business legends including Lord Leverhulme, the British soap pioneer, Frank Woolworth, America's first discount-retailer and John Wanamaker, the father of the department store, all, at one point or another, complained they knew half of their advertising budget was wasted, but didn't know which half. Why is it that marketers cannot accurately identify this waste? Traditional media - television, radio, outdoor and others - typically charge advertisers on a cost-per-thousand basis (CPM). These same media do not have an exact methodology to measure the success or failure of an advertising campaign, i.e., return on investment (ROI). We do, and have had for years. In our industry, FindWhat.com and GoTo were the first to realize and act upon this void by launching Pay-Per-Click ads in the late 1990s, where advertisers paid when ads performed. With MIVA's intense focus on performance and ROI, if Leverhulme, Woolworth or Wanamaker were here today, their complaint about wasted advertising budgets would be reduced dramatically, especially if they advertised with MIVA. MIVA has continued to evolve as we have aggregated and developed new products and services to better serve our customers. Today we offer a range of products and services through our three industry-facing divisions - MIVA Media, MIVA Small Business and MIVA Direct - aimed at significantly enhancing an advertiser's ability to improve ROI, further minimizing waste and uncertainty. We were first-to-market with a revolutionary Pay-Per-Call offering - connecting businesses with or without a web presence, with targeted Internet-based leads. MIVA was the first to offer private label solutions to large publishing partners looking to offer a performance advertising solution under their own brand. Every element of MIVA's business works in unison to reshape modern-day advertising. Within our MIVA Media Division, our cost-effective and powerful advertiser solutions - such as Pay-Per-Click and Pay-Per-Call - deliver qualified leads to advertisers' websites and help them maximize their return on investment. MIVA advertisers pay only when we deliver a lead to them and, as a result, advertisers see exactly where each advertising dollar is spent. Introducing the New MIVA 'The Whole is Greater than the Sum of its Parts' MIVA is the new name for the FindWhat.com Group. In 2004, FindWhat.com undertook an aggressive merger and acquisition strategy, bringing together numerous companies from around the globe, including Espotting, Miva Corporation, B&B Advertising, MVCool and Comet Systems. We've been integrating our systems and streamlining our processes. Now, we come together with one name and one mission. Our name is MIVA. Our mission is to help your business grow through performance marketing services. Today we help more than 100,000 companies across three continents grow their businesses. We're excited about tomorrow.
