Telkom culls Aardvark search engine
Telkom has informed its subscribers of the decommission of the Aardvark search site from Monday 24 February as the facility was underutilised.
Aardvark was a popular South African search many years ago, but along with other local search engines such as Ananzi, it fell victim to Google’s success.
Telkom explained that its digital strategy is constantly evolving and, as such, it aims to align its offerings to the changing usage patterns of customers and offer innovative content and communication solutions.
“In order to ramp up our effort to improve the online experience of our customers, a decision was taken to decommission the Aardvark search site from Monday 24 February as the facility was underutilised,” Telkom said.
