Mojeek CEO here: Our business model is our paid API and contextual, no-tracking ads.
- AlienRobot 2y agoInteresting, when I was taking a look at alternative search engines I tried Mojeek and I never saw a single ad, so I assumed it had no way to make money (just like Wiby). But where are the ads? I just searched for "best cars 2024." Not a single ad. "Insurance lawyers," no ads. "Best keyboard," no ads. Maybe the reason why this happens is because I'm not from the US/EU/UK? Also when I use a search operator, like "insurance lawyers" surrounded by double quotes, I get a 403 forbidden error because I appear "to be sending automated queries so we can't process your search at this time." To me, that means Mojeek won't let me use it as a search engine.
