The Searchers search engine is bringing a bit of â??oomph’ back to Britain by providing search results that are specific to UK residents. Up until now, the search industry has been lead by large international search engines, leaving Britain lagging behind in the race.
That is until now of course. Searchers has moved onto the scene, boasting to be the UK’s largest, locally hosted search engine. This is great news for Britain as it means we could lead the way in search technology and not have to depend on other organisations outside of those that belong in our country. Too much money has been leaving Britain’s economy, and going into the pockets of those who own big international search engines, through advertising and marketing.
Understandably, the international search engines are very popular but now there is no excuse not to support a local search engine that has the capacity to compete and be just as large and successful as the forerunners in the search industry. The more we use UK based search engines, the more likely they are to develop and grow meaning constantly improving results.
The main thing people want out of a search engine is good quality results that help find the answers to whatever it is you are searching for. The trouble at the moment is, large international search engines are providing masses of results that are collected from websites across the whole of the internet. This means results are not always specific to your location, and if you need them to be it can make the results irrelevant.
Say for instance you are searching for â??red shoes’, an international search engine may find you the best website offering a huge range of red shoes, providing just what you are looking for. But if that stockist who owns the website is located on the other side of the world then that isn’t going to be so practical.
With UK specific search engine, search results are compiled for UK citizens to ensure that all results are relevant and useful. This will improve search results for the Searchers’ user because it will eliminate the arduous process of sifting through irrelevant search results.
The Searchers’ search results will also be compiled using advanced techniques that don’t just simply rely on basic word matching. Searchers takes into account the meaning of every page it indexes, and ranks that result depending on its relevancy to the search query.
