About ConsumerSearchHow ConsumerSearch.com Got Started How ConsumerSearch.com Got Started The seeds of ConsumerSearch were planted in 1991 when the company's founder, Derek Drew, was researching the purchase of a "Desktop Publishing System" for a new business. Drew found that he was unable to make an intelligent purchase decision without having to stitch together reviews of the products from three different computer magazines, a task that was both overwhelming and time consuming. Drew recognized the need for a resource that could quickly and reliably tie together the reviews of these publications. ConsumerSearch.com is the result of that experience. In May 2007, ConsumerSearch.com was acquired by About.com. About.com is one of the 15th most visited sites in the US and a part of The New York Times Company. For each product category, ConsumerSearch offers:
At ConsumerSearch, you will not find reports that read like advertising copy or warmed-over press releases. We strive to make our content tough and precise, and at no point are our editors influenced by advertising or other commercial considerations. Our purpose is to report the truth about what the experts are really saying. You can also use our service as a search engine to find product reviews and information, as our name suggests.
