Vertical Search Engine Launches for the Pharmaceutical Industry

NEWTOWN, Pa. – February 5, 2008 – Canon Communications Pharmaceutical Media Group today announced the launch of PharmaLiveSearch.com, the first vertical search engine specific to the pharmaceutical industry. PharmaLiveSearch.com was developed in partnership with Convera Corporation (NASDAQ: CNVR) and caters to pharmaceutical professionals by providing specialized search results on products, diseases, companies, therapeutic categories, and more.

General search engines scan the entire World Wide Web, which supplies hundreds of irrelevant links. PharmaLiveSearch.com cuts through the clutter, scanning 4,000 industry-relevant sources including national and regional association archives and other media sites, Web-based government sources, pharmaceutical company Websites, and popular pharmaceutical blogs. This search technique creates exceptionally focused search results. 

PharmaLiveSearch.com gives users the choice of three types of searches:

  • Our recommended sites, which filters out results unrelated to the industry
  • Our proprietary websites, PharmaLive and Therapeutics Daily
  • The entire Web

With PharmaLiveSearch.com, pharmaceutical professionals can research virtually anything that matters in their day-to-day business decision making. To assist in the search process, PharmaLiveSearch.com recommends related search terms, suggests broader and narrower search terms, and shows the most popular user searches as well as the industry’s latest news.

Advertisers will benefit from putting their message in front of prospects during the information gathering process in a highly-targeted and relevant editorial environment.
