Australian Search Engines and Directories
Australian mirror of this popular search engine. No longer just a directory, Yahoo has discarded Google's web results and now runs its own search engine. Search by World sites or just Australia or by category and keyword in the directory section. Sponsored listings are provided courtesy of Overture (or Yahoo! Search Marketing as it is now called)
No explanation needed for this engine, choose to search Australian site only or global sites. Listing your site here is still free or you can take on paid advertising through Google's pay per click listings, Adwords.
