SAN FRANCISCO – LookSmart, Ltd. (NASDAQ:LOOK), a pay-per-click (PPC) search advertising network and technology solutions provider, announced it is partnering with Click Forensics, the industry leader in scoring, auditing and improving traffic quality for the online advertising community, to receive third party PPC quality reports. LookSmart is leveraging Click Forensics’ FACTr reports to improve the speed and flow of feedback from advertisers on the value delivered through the LookSmart network.
“LookSmart is focused on maintaining and enhancing our network quality assurance processes, which are key to delivering the highest return on investment to our search advertisers,” said Ted West, chief executive officer and president of LookSmart. “The FACTr reports represent one more way we are delivering on our promise to advertisers to help them make smart, dependable choices that will make a real difference for their business.”
