It was less than 1.8 Billion
Ask.com isn’t saying what they’re paying for Lexico Publishing Group, which operates the Dictionary.com, Thesaurus.com, and Reference.com web sites, but we’ll assume it’s a lot less than CBS is paying for CNet (see previous post). These are good properties, though, and should give a boost to the fourth-ranked search engine’s overall traffic (and ad revenue).
