Search Engine Relevance
April 26th, 2009 by Frank
As it seems, the tides are turning for the Google search engine which has been increasingly receiving challenge from Facebook as the search engine of choice for more realistic day to day situations, why? Well, trust plays a key part in the said shift of focus and with millions of problem results given by Google as part of their searches, they simply cannot go through the vast amount of web page data to determine which sites can be trusted or not. Questions like; “Where’s the best place to eat true Italian Pizza in Chicago?” or “Which Day-care center has better people?” are quite personal and with too much commercialized focus on Google searches, they may be loosing in the overall battle for search engine supremacy.
Google by all means is still the biggest and baddest search engine around yet they might become a victim of their successful advertising campaigns that gives results based upon commercial values. The advent of the semantic web has improved a bit, the quality of search results yet they can still give you a lot of sour lemons, loaded with malware and other irrelevant results product of malicious activity to boost page ranking.
