What is a Search Engines?
Definition: An internet-based tool that searches an index of documents for a particular term, phrase or text specified by the user. Commonly used to refer to large web-based Search Engines that search through billions of pages on the internet.
Common Characteristics:
• Spider, Indexer, Database, Algorithm• Find matching documents and display them according to
relevance• Frequent updates to documents searched and ranking algorithm• Strive to produce “better”, more relevant results than
competitors
Examples popular Search Engines:
•Spider “crawls” the web to find new documents (web pages, other documents) typically by following hyperlinks from websites already in their database
•Search Engines indexes the content (text, code) in these documents by adding it to their databases and then periodically updates this content
•Search Engines search their own databases when a user enters in a search to find related documents (not searching web pages in real-time)
•Search Engines rank the resulting documents using an algorithm (mathematical formula) by assigning various weights and ranking factors
How Do Search Engines Work?
• 85% of all traffic on the internet is referred to by Search Engines
• 90% of all users don’t look past the first 30 results (most only view top 10)
• Search Engines traffic is low and websites aren’t indexed because they are generally poorly optimized
• Cost-effective advertising
• Clear and measurable ROI
• Operates under this assumption:
More (relevant) traffic + Good Conversions Rate = More Sales/Leads
