Lumerias.com now searches in over 10 million videos


Duisburg, September 24, 2007 -- The new video search engine Lumerias.com reaches its 10 million videos milestone these days. With this accomplishment achieved, the service reachable at http://www.lumerias.com/ and specialised in finding online videos allows users an even more complete search of the video content available on the Internet.

Crucial, even more than the number of indexed videos, is the freshness of the index and the included content. This is an important topic Lumerias addresses every day - besides growing the index and working on delivering higher quality and more relevant video search results.

In addition to that, since the service's official public start on August 1st, improved filter options and and richer meta data presentation was added over the past seven weeks. Using the search service today, it is possible to sort videos by source (for example "site:YouTube") and user ("user:XYZ") and to get information about runtime, category and tags for every entry – of course, only supplementing the standard presentation of titles, context snippets and video thumbnail images.
