I was asked by one of my old friend about the search engine amount. She was shocked when I answered that there are over 300 free internet search engine.

She told me that I should share some knowledge about search engine. So, I decide to write this article, hope you gain some insight by reading this.

The most popular search engine is Google. Google use the software called spider which will record all of the information related to a search. So, when you or anyone searches for those keywords, Google will give the accurate result.

Today, the week point of Google is only about email research. Google can not search email accurately. Do not worry, it only the matter of time until Google will have the ability to search one.

Beside Google you can also use the Yahoo search engine. The concept of Yahoo is different from Google. Yahoo search directory does not use spider to locate the search.

It depends on human either its editor or the reader who submit their links. There are also another search engine and directories such as A9.com, AllTheWeb.com, ASkJeeves.com, Vivision.com, DogPile.com, DMOZ.org, About.com, and many more.

So, which one is the best alternatives? You can not gain maximum result if you only exploit one search engine. The best tip is to use various search engines. You can compare and contrast the result.

This way, you can gain maximum result.
