Best Search Engine?

Google I usually go to 1st. One of my favorites that I find to be more powerful is surfwax.com

But is there an even "stronger" one?

Update:

I'm kind of looking for more of an unknown, but powerful one. So far surfwax.com seems to be in the lead.

DogPile.com has less than yahoo or google.

surfwax filters less...so you can choose for yourself.

    1. Google

    2. Yahoo!

    3. MSN\Live Search

    4. Ask.com

    Those are the current top 4 leading search engines, of course Google has a huge chunk of the search market, but the organic traffic doesn't seem to "convert" as well as Yahoo! or MSN. Ask.com is really ramping up the advertisements on TV and might be a potential player in the future, their results are also very relevant and decent.

    Depends on what you are looking for. Yahoo tends to outperform Google for "shopping" type queries (e.g., "buy a DVD player") while Google is the leader for reference. Both are doing a pretty decent job intermingling a variety of types of results in the main listings-- maps, products, video, news articles, etc.

    Vertical search engines abound as well-- that focus on a particular niche. For example, business.com has a lot of B2B service providers-- so if that is what you are looking for, you are better served going there vs. the major engines.

    Goodsearch.com makes donations for each search performed on that site. The results may not be better, but you can feel like you are contributing to a good cause.

    Try This search engine below:

    Advertising and Marketing

    Search The World - Website Index

    It’s rarely an instant return on the Internet. You need your website coming up relevant to what people "search for" on the Internet. It takes time to get placement in the right places within the Internet and if you're listed in the right category of searches you stand a better chance of returns. The following is one of the better ways.

    For a small charge you can have a “Permanent” website advertisement placed in an index such as this in a choice of around 750 categories to target your business trade.

    A Permanent listing means getting permanent indexing by search engines.

    This will raise your website profile and increase its chances of extra sales because this site is indexed by the search engines placing your site within "public searches".

    The advantage of a site like this is that you don’t have to update your listing again.

    For a permanent ongoing promotion:

    www.search-the-world.com/form/listing

    This will only cost you $6.00 for a permanent listing that will eventually get picked up in search engine searches. You can also get a much higher profile permanent advertisement as well for $20.00. You never have to list or pay with them again.

    I found free advertising sites don’t work very well but this one off payment site does.

    If you don’t believe me type in “search-the-world.com” into the Yahoo search box and you’ll see thousands of links returned. This site really works and its probably the best kept secret around!

    Search The World Articles

    By using their new free articles site:

    www.search-the-world.com/articles

    You can add articles about products, services or things you know about and add your website url details at the bottom of each. And these get picked up by RSS feeds and get distributed through other sites and through the Internet. You can add as many articles as you like for free. It’s all Free advertising and marketing for you!

    Search The World Free Stores & Auctions

    This is a Free store and auction site from them:

    www.search-the-world.com/auctions

    You get your own shopping store where you can sell either by auction or just like a regular store at “Buy Now” prices. You get your own store Url which you then need to promote yourself to get more customers etc. Promote your store Url just like you would any other form of business and build up your customer base from there. You can use Paypal. Works just like Ebay but you pay no selling fees and its all 100% free to use.
