hakia, a semantic search engine, today announced the launch of its Syndication Web Services for Web sites and businesses looking to offer semantic search to their visitors. Berggi, an emerging global leader in mobile consumer applications, is hakia’s first partner to offer semantic search on mobile phones.

hakia’s Syndication Web Services deliver the same core semantic technology that powers hakia’s award winning search engine, along with many other applications suitable for portals, search engine marketing firms, mobile applications and document management systems.

The services provide an XML feed, and options to customize the feed. hakia offers 30,000 searches per day free of charge and free of advertising that is available to early adopters until the partners’ quota is filled.

“The hakia implementation is simple and beneficial to a range of applications, from advertising to document management,” said Dr. Riza Berkan, CEO, hakia. “Now, webmasters with the most complex projects will experience unique improvements that are possible only by semantic search technology.”

“The ability to search the web from your mobile phone will soon be a key consumer need, as people do more with their cell phones on the go. What drew us to hakia is the power of their semantic search results, which we believe will be central to global mass market adoption of any web search offer for mobile phones,” said Babur Ozden, CEO of Berggi.

Using hakia Syndication Web Services, Berggi has already released an alpha version of a simple and easy to use mobile search application for global market adoption. The application is compatible with AT&T and Sprint phones and can be downloaded from http://www.berggisearch.com.
