62. Search Services Web Portal A Web portal is a single point of access to information which is Linked from various logically related internet based applications and of interest to various type of users Portals present information from diverse sources in a unified way.

64. Search Services How do search engines work? Search engine databases are selected and built by computer robot programs called spiders – crawling on the WWW. They cannot think or type a URL or use judgment to "decide" to go look something up and see what's on the web about it. (Computers are getting more sophisticated all the time, but they are still brainless.)

65. If a web page is never linked to in any other page, search engine spiders cannot find it, unless its URL is sent to the search engine companies as a request that the new page be included. After spiders find pages, they pass them on to another computer program for "indexing." Text, links, and other content in the page are stored in the search engine database's files so that the database can be searched by keyword and whatever more advanced approaches are offered, and the page will be found if your search matches its content.

66. Ranking of websites Word proximity and placement Popularity - a link to a page is a vote for it Importance - traffic, popularity of pages linking to a page Subject specific Some types of pages and links are excluded from most search engines by policy. Others are excluded because search engine spiders cannot access them. Pages that are excluded are referred to as the "Invisible Web" -- what you don't see in search engine results.
