About Twenga

Bastien Duclaux and Cédric Anès created Twenga in 2006 after they realised that only a tiny fraction of today’s hundreds of thousands of online shops could be found through traditional search engines and directories. Consumers were missing out on great products and great deals and shops were missing out on customers. Twenga solves this problem.

News Facts

  • Twenga, the new-generation search engine enables millions of shoppers throughout the world to find what they want, at the best price, from the online shop of their choice.
  • Thanks to its home-grown technology, Twenga automatically gathers offers from online retailers and displays them in one searchable interface. As a result, Twenga has the most comprehensive listing of online shops. Its search results are objective and not biased by commercial relationships.
  • Founded in 2006 by Bastien Duclaux and Cedric Anes, Twenga runs 14 sites, including the UK, France, Spain, Italy, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, Brazil, Russia, the United States, Australia and India displaying more than 250 million offerings from more than 100,000 online shops.

Finding the Perfect Crib a Top Priority this Summer Baby Season

Online searches for crib bumpers, canopies and pillows jump more than 800%

New York – July 12, 2010 – It’s no surprise that babies are on the brain for a large percentage of Americans this summer, as more babies are born in August than any other month of the year. This could also explain why online searches for baby cribs and crib accessories have skyrocketed over the past few weeks. According to Twenga, the next-generation shopping search engine, searches for cribs, baby bedding and accessories on Twenga.com have surged by more than 800 percent in the past 30 days. A few trends that have stood out include the following:

  • Parents are increasingly concerned with creating a safe environment for their newborns, as searches for protective bed rails are up 114 percent and crib canopies up 990 percent.
  • Top colors include gray, white and other neutral colors to create a soothing atmosphere.
  • The most searched-for character is Winnie the Pooh, which could explain why orange bedding is this year’s must-have for the nursery.
