useful results. |

The search engine goto.com is pretty new. Yet it has attained the 24th position in popularity within a very short time (Dec
1998 figure). This search engine uses other search engines to create its database. Also, people purchase search words to become listed at the top of the page. Pages are only listed on the
site through these two methods (other search engines popularity or payment). They claim that this approach, along with their superior database query system. Produces more valid results to
queries. |
|
| AltaVista searches the web regularly. All pages on a domain are searched and listed as to key content. |
A + means the word must appear in the result. Most of the engines shown here allow use of
this technique. You can erase or edit the entries shown to match your preferred search.

|
| InfoSeek was once a highly comprehensive search engine. It is received laurels from about everyone. As of late,
it has instituted several spam and other policies which has made it a much less useable product. We find that, as of late, goto.com and altavista produce much more valid results than InfoSeek.

|
| Yahoo is the original and is still one of the most popular and well known listing service. It uses key fields
to categorize sites. |

|
