"Velocity was specifically designed to yield the most comprehensive, contextual and intuitive experience possible, so embedding our content delivery platform into our client's front-end for use by their customers is a natural fit," said Vice President of Marketing for Vivisimo, Tracey Mustacchio. "Our relationship with recycler.com demonstrates the dynamic potency of our platform and the power of Information Optimization."
Integrating content from 65 local and niche classified publications and a number of online sites, recycler.com chose Velocity for its flexible handling of bins and facets, high-speed federated searches, and ability to customize ranking methodologies to ensure the most relevant ads are displayed to users.
"Vivisimo is a user-friendly, conscious, and contextually relevant platform that places emphasis on 'findability,' as opposed to just 'searchability' for our users, which was something we knew customers needed from the new recycler.com local advertising platform," said Senior Vice President of Interactive for recycler.com, Josh Siegel. "We, and our users, have been extremely excited with the results Velocity has been able to achieve and we're looking forward to expanding our technology with Vivisimo's Information Optimizing Platform in the near future."
