Yahoo Search

As someone who surfs the Internet frequently for research and writing, I tend to use search engines a lot. Now basically, all search engines are the same. The track and seek out relevant information based on keywords I specify. But when it comes to the relevance of those keywords, I have found Yahoo search to be the best. Others might claim that google search is the best while still others plum for AOL search or Netscape search. But for my usage and specifications, there is nothing to compare with Yahoo search. Let me tell you why.

Most other searches are plain searches. They search for a keyword and get back all sorts of results. While the number of results may be more, the relevance of these search results is lesser. This makes these searches a difficult option when quick and reliable results are needed. Not to mention absolutely useless if you are looking for the widest range of most reliable and credible information based on your keyword specifications. Yes! It can be quite frustrating!

But this is not the case with Yahoo search. Yahoo search is a Boolean search which means that it brings about the results while seeking relevance over anything else. Yahoo search does not merely provide you with keyword options. It gives you keyword options and presents only those pages relevant to the keyword you seek. Another feature of Yahoo search that I find especially useful is that it allows you to search by categories or themes as opposed to other search engines that demand only keyword search. Searching with Yahoo search is all the more easier as you can select the category or theme, run the search query and get a wide range of articles connected to your keyword, yet relevant to the theme specified by you.

Since the yahoo search feature is integrated into the yahoo portal itself, you also stand to get a number of cross benefits. These include the ability to compare your yahoo search results with and across other themes, to find other information about your yahoo search results and even to find comprehensive information about the search result that you can manually filter and compile. What is the benefit of this? Well, lets say you are looking for Los Angeles on the net. Other search engines will in all probability throw up thousands of websites where Los Angeles is mentioned online. But with yahoo search, not only can you get all relevant information about Los Angeles, you can also see a map of Los Angeles, you can view classified advertisements pertaining to Los Angeles and also read through the latest news from and pertaining to Los Angeles. Now if this isn’t convenient, what is?

Furthermore, using yahoo search, you can categorize all this information to reflect the best of what you need from your search results. So If I were working on a research article on Los Angeles and I typed in my query in yahoo search, the results I would get would not only be the most relevant, but also the most comprehensive from a number of channels perspective. These are the reasons why I prefer Yahoo search.
