In 2005, Lexico announced that Reference.com would begin offering searches of Wikipedia content.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Reference.com Expands Content by Adding Wikipedia Encyclopedia to Search Capabilities )〕 In mid-2007, the site typically ranked in the mid-200s among the most popular websites on the Internet.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Reference.com Traffic Details )〕 The popularity of Dictionary.com had been greatly boosted by Google's practice of offering a link at the top of their search results that go to the Dictionary.com definition. This exclusive relationship was terminated without explanation to the public when the Google links were redirected to definitions at Answers.com. (In December 2009, the Answers.com links were replaced with Google's own dictionary.) Google additionally added a Dictionary.com definition link for certain search words in a non-exclusive relationship (along with links to definitions from a few other commercial reference websites). On 3 July 2008, IAC acquired Lexico Publishing Group, LLC and its three properties: Thesaurus.com, Reference.com, and Dictionary.com.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Ask.com closes Dictionary.com deal )〕
