it may be a bit unfair to judge them by looking at today's website, which is not in service anymore, even if they have a home page.

"Today, Foundem’s website is the digital equivalent of a boarded-up house"

Their business is dead, because they were artificially demoted to 4th page in search when Google Product Search was created.

Yes but its a poor quality comparison site that added no value I know sites also hit by penguin that where far more worthy.

Kellys Directory for example which had its roots in a company founded in the 1700's

It was always just a basic price comparison site though.
