Current chart-toppers Maroon 5 have launched their own branded search engine at www.SearchWithMaroon5.com, where each search is an automatic entry to win a prize from the band. Prodge, the engine behind the new initiative, has launched several other similar projects with the likes of Wynonna Judd and Meatloaf. No registration is required to use it, and each day a handful of winning times are pre-selected to win Maroon 5 autographs and memorabilia. Prodege has also launched SearchWinMerch.com where fans can win tickets to the upcoming Virgin Festival in Baltimore, as well as official merchandise from the likes of Nirvana, Beastie Boys, the Clash, and the Smiths. Since its launch, Prodege has given out more than 200 prizes, with Maroon 5's new program expected to increase traffic for the remainder of the year. www.SearchWithMaroon5.com
