Introduction
This report will provide an overview of the Virtual Internet Services,
Inc's Search Engine Registration services.
Relevant
Background Information
Classification of Search Engines
Because there are hundreds if not thousands of search engines on the
Internet, it is important to understand the different types of search
engines, their audience reach, and their methods for providing search
results.
Search engines as a group can be classified into a multi-tier system.
The first tier search engines are those that reach the largest audience
and provide over 99% of the Internet's search results. In contrast,
the second and third tier search engines have limited audience reach
and a small amount of traffic.
The
first tier search engines are:
About,
AltaVista, AOL, Ask, Canada.com, DogPile, Excite, Fast/AlltheWeb,
FindWhat, Go, Go2Net, Google, GoTo, Hotbot, iWon, Looksmart, Lycos,
Mamma, MetaCrawler, MSN, NBCi, Netscape, NorthernLight, Open Directory,
WebCrawler, Yahoo and Yahoo Web Pages.
Within
this tier system of search engines, search results are provided
in several manners. Where many of the first tier search engines
have acquired and maintain their own index of websites to query,
the second and third tier search engines predominately distribute
the first tier search engines' results.
For example, www.surfwax.com provides search results from polling
Yahoo!, AltaVista, Northern Light and the Open Directory among others.
First
Tier Search Engines
Within the first tier of search engines, there are three main methods
used to provide search results:
- Crawler
Based Search Engines
Crawler based search engines provide listings by querying a database
for relevant site matches. These engines "index" the
web by sending "spiders" out to websites seeking to
obtain relevancy data. Google currently has the largest index
on the web with well over 1 billion pages. However, Excite has
the largest audience reach of all Crawler based engines.
- Directory
Based Search Engines
Directories provide a categorical listing of websites similar
to your local Yellow Pages. Yahoo! is the largest search engine
out of all the categories of search engines. Yahoo's audience
reach is 61.9% of all Internet users.
- Pay
For Position Search Engines
Pay
for position search engines charge advertisers fees for search
term positioning. This fee is usually on a per click basis and
open for competitive bidding. GoTo.com is the largest bid for
position search engine providing search results for several top
25 search engines including AltaVista, AOL, GO, Hotbot, InfoSeek,
Lycos, NBCi and Netscape. FindWhat and About.com's Sprinks service
are GoTo's closest competitors.
