Originally Ask was known as 'Ask Jeeves', supposedly a more sophisticated search engine.

The thing that makes Ask search results so different is how they include a list of questions and answers in the side bar column of each search result.

I hardly use anything else other than Google for search and research work but my blogs do get some visitors from Ask.com so it might be worth looking into the details of how to benefit from those 100M users that they receive.

I see Google and Bing have Webmaster Tools, does Ask.com also have such service for webmasters to see how high their sites are ranking on their search engine and ways to improve it?

This is an old thread, in 2017, perhaps more people are using Ask, or may be people are not using Ask anymore. I don't know the current stat.
Generally speaking, I use Google most of the time. If I do not find relevant information, I use Bing and yahoo. I sometimes check what's up in baidu or yandex as well.

I am surprised to know that Ask.com is still alive and doing well with that million of users. It was my very first search engine. When I tried it, I was comfortable and I made it my default search engine until Google came into the picture. I think I was using Ask.com for more than a year and I only shifted to Google when I saw the search results which are more convincing. It;’s not the quick results but the mainly the content of Google’s search list that got my attention.
