search engines

For a company with so much money riding on their algorithm Youtube sure is awful. I mean, as an example, for months I've been trying to get it to show me candid, man on the street videos of various construction projects. I do deliberate searches for this every single time I log in and click on...

So this. This is something that needs to be taught, and keep up to date with. Also, why the **** doesn't Bing have any search parameter tips? You have to search the internet for other people's tips for Bing. (Using Bing a fair bit because I use the Ecosia search non-profit, plus am...

Well, Google's constant demands for me to confirm that they can do what the hell they like with my info (There's an 'accept' button, no option not to) has finally caused me to switch to a different search engine. DuckDuckGo seems reasonable. Is it? What's the search engine of choice for the...

Within the past few days I've noticed an intermittent problem with DuckDuckGo in Firefox. I'm not sure if it's a problem with DuckDuckGo itself or if my computer has a virus. I'm running Windows 7 and whatever the latest version of Firefox is. I have DuckDuckGo set as my homepage. When I...

Just launched, http://com.google/ A new way of looking at things.

AltaVista will be ancient history on July 8. http://news.cnet.com/8301-1023_3-57591629-93/a-hail-and-farewell-to-altavista/ It was the first search engine I ever used (in 1996). But I haven't used it in at least 13 years. Here's the link for old times' sake: http://www.altavista.com/

I have an unusual problem with the Google search engine. I’m a member of a non-profit mostly volunteer organization for people with hearing loss. The structure is that the national headquarters is in Bethesda, Maryland (Washington DC suburb) and there are well over a 150 chapters throughout...

I use the Yahoo toolbar in Firefox. I have the default search engine in Firefox set to Google. But when I type a search into it, as soon as I hit return the same identical search terms appear in the Yahoo search box on the toolbar. I've tried searching but can't find anything current on this...

Over the past year I've been attempting to track search engines primarily driven by Bing (and in conjunction with Yahoo), and Google (in conjunction with AOL). Generally I believe there may be an unintended bias on the part of one of these systems --- I'll let you decide which --- that...

When I click on a link in a search, the page gets redirected. It doesn't matter which browser I use (I've tried Firefox, Opera and IE), or which search engine (I've tried Google, Yahoo, Bing, and it happened in a search at at .gov.au website)... the link gets redirected to a different page...

So just now I tried to open Wikipedia's article on Chechnya. I typed "Chechnya" into the search bar, and the drop-down list appears. As bad luck would have it, my mouse pointer happened to be in the middle of the drop down list, and when I hit Enter, I was taken to "2008 Chechnya earthquake"...

I've set up a website and I need a search engine for the site (it's only 6 pages and not likely to get much larger but will contain lots of info) can anyone recommend something? I'm a html nooby BTW, but willing to knuckle down and learn. tia Compus

Google challenger? Sounds cool. From The Independent:

Back in September I posted a blog entry titled "Not just for spam anymore: NOFOLLOW for skepticism". The basic premise of the article is that when a skeptic links to a site that is pushing misinformation (presumably to "debunk" or counter it), the skeptic should be careful to link in such a way...

Does any one know of a good search engine optimiser (SEO) company? Or does any one here do it? I have a friend in Bulgaria who sells property to People from England. He keeps getting cold called by companys in England claiming they can get him to no.1 on Google. After quick searches on Google...
