Krakteknik - Find
håndværker
Krakteknik is the largest Danish engine specialized in finding
entrepreneurs and materials. Yahoo -
www.yahoo.com
The largest index on the internet. Gets its robot results from Google. Company sites must have a .com
Internet presence and pay a
review fee of $199. A very important directory to get listed. LookSmart
- www.looksmart.com
LookSmart does provide a directory service, but has it's main impact as
a database provider to big services like AltaVista, Excite, MSN and
others. Claims to reach 83% of US Internet users. Review fee of $199 -
with occasional cut offs - very important. AltaVista - www.altavista.com
Scooter is the AltaVista spider, who crawls the web and indexes pages in
Altavistas own databases. The main results in AltaVista comes from
LookSmart. Has regional versions in several languages. Excite - www.excite.com
Like AltaVista, Excite receives it's main results from LookSmart. The
Excite spider is Architext. Excite has about 5% of referrals but is
still important and has always been one of the big ones. Google - www.google.com
Rather a newcomer, but since it's deal with Yahoo, absolutely one of the
big players. Google was one of the first search engines to use inbound link popularity
as a ranking criteria. Fast - www.alltheweb.com
Like LookSmart, Fast is mainly a database provider. It used to be rather
big, still serves most Lycos Europe sites, but it's impact is declining.
Norwegian based. Lycos - www.lycos.com
Has country specific IP redirects, so you will probably the local Lycos
site. Lycos has expanded in Europe lately and must be considered a major
player, especially in Europe, but as an old service it has many US users
too. Inktomi - www.inktomi.com
The Inktomi paid inclusion differs from LookSmart and Yahoo. You pay per
page, and the fee will guarantee a visit from Slurp, the Inktomi spider.
Inktomi has no search service but provides results to AOL and others, so
for the US market it's an important place to get listed. GoTo -
www.goto.com
Goto is a pay per click search engine, that means you can bit on
keywords for which you want a high ranking. Goto has a suggestion tool,
where you can check searches per keyword. In some cases a very good
investment. DMOZ - www.dmoz.org
The Open Directory Project (ODP) or DMOZ is a directory of voluntary
editors, with internet experience and special interest in their fields.
ODP / DMOZ is an important directory and it's database is widely used.
