AltaVista, Yahoo, Free, Virgil, etc. .. are many search engines on the Internet. Why you should prefer just among the many Google?

Like so many other things, much depends on personal taste, the occasion, but mostly by what you’re looking at that time. All search engines that you have to respect the strong points in common, such as the ability to search web sites and images. What most interests us in terms of comparison are of course differences.

Take for example Yahoo. He has something more than Google? The answer is yes. allows the direct search of video. But is it really useful that there is this section? A Google of course not, now that YouTube has absorbed (the site that hosts most of the videos throughout the internet!). In addition, the homepage of Yahoo uses a series of articles, news and other divisions on the most disparate subjects. Google does not have any of this, is composed of only a blank page with the logo and the sections of research.

That a user might prefer one type of home rather than another depends very much on personal choices, the fact is that the good sense to Google to detail does not compare with others. Here, for example image search, Google can only choose the size.

We now think of Virgil, has anche’esso the video section. In addition to what appears as additional sections “Business”, “products” and “people” that allows you to have access to a kind of blank pages with some useful information broken down by field of membership.

Our search engine AltaVista has the approval of a special of its own, allows you to search specifically music files (mp3 or other formats) directly from various sites. Too bad that this functionality is not exploited to the full in fact, when searching the song that interests you, you will realize that the results are poor: they can not find the song nor a true interactive link by which you could hear it. But often merely states the sites where the name of that song is mentioned.

We must therefore recognize that Google, despite its simplicity, gives way to have arrangements in SFOR in unnecessary details without ever referring to other structural encumbrances that is not of primary importance but for maximum efficiency on what arouses interest.
