Mirago are an ideal match for us in the UK , said Victoria Piper , Sales Manager of FortuneCitys UK advertising operations.

The sheer size of Miragos UK index coupled with their balance for providing relevant web results alongside paid placement made them a compelling proposition both commercially and for user experience for our visitors and members," she continued.

Commenting on the partnership, Reggie James, Head of Miragos commercial operations added, We believe that FortuneCitys users will benefit immensely from the unique search delivery platform adopted by Mirago. For too long Internet users have been bombarded by irrelevant commercial messages and even more irrelevant search results. We have taken great care to ensure users and advertisers get the most out of Mirago."

To complement its UK indexes Mirago will be launching French, Spanish and German indexes by the summer.
