"There's a number of really important reasons for our quick success that complement each other," commented Sebastian Henao, CEO of Gyffu. "First, Americans have been very welcoming to us because there is a high sensitivity towards user's privacy in the US, so by being available in English we've received a big boost. Also, our advertisers have been quite happy as they can get 10%+ CTR with us, compared to only 1-2% elsewhere. We even had 14% CTR with the World Humanitarian Day which is unheard of. Our users don't mind Gyffu advertisements since we won't allow text ads that disguise among organic search results; there's no trickery – they see an ad, know it's an ad, and know that the company is supporting online privacy – and then can decide if they would like to check out the advertiser's offer. All this has combined for our quick growth."
According to the company's founders, CEO Sebastian Henao and CTO Darwin Tusarma, they have created a new tool in Gyffu, which prevents search engines, advertisers, government agencies and the general public from tracing searches back to any particular individual. In addition, the results on Gyffu are the direct result of their proprietary algorithm, which has a distinct separation between organic and paid results. Gyffu proudly refuses to disguise ads as organic search results.
User feedback continues to be quite passionate.
Michelle K., from Boston, recently said, "Our online privacy should be a top priority for all of us. When I found out about Gyffu I jumped on board right away. The search engine works great, and it's helping an amazing cause. Five stars and fully recommended."
