Search engines have two components: collection and search. A search engine uses a "robot" to survey the Internet and collect resources. Then the resources are sorted and indexed by keywords, creating a database. When a user initiates a search, the engine searches its database, ranks the resources in the database against the specified search term, and then returns a list of possible "matches." Additionally, each search engine uses its own conventions for searching, indexing and ranking; some engines search just the title of documents while others search the content of entire pages or sites. Therefore, search results will differ from engine to engine. Search engines perform more effectively when you use a structured search strategy. Google is one of the best search engines that have over 1300 million Web pages indexed - easily making it the largest and most efficient search engine. Google uses sophisticated text-matching techniques to find pages that are both important and relevant to your search. For instance, when Google analyzes a page, it looks at those pages linking to that page have to say about it. Google also assigns higher relevance to pages in which your query terms appear near each other. For information on how to use this engine please visit - http://www.google.com/help/basics.html
