Search Engines

I learned many new things about search engines in the presentation. I thought one part of the presentation that was very interesting was how search engines rank websites. Google actually weights websites to determine which ones are most useful. Google will also send automotive bots to scan the pages to find key terms. Usually the more key terms the more useful the article is for your topic.

Another thing I learned was how to classify your search. For example, I did not know you could type site: - .com and restrict your search to non .com websites. There are also advanced searches that allow you to limit your search. I learned how to use search engines more effectively and efficiently from the presentation.
