Swicki TutorialTrain Your Swicki-Choose Relevant URLs and KeywordsYou have three options from where you'd like your Swicki to retrieve results (more are coming). The Web is checked by default. The Swicki asks you to "Type in one or two keywords that always relate to your swicki, these keywords will be added to all searches." You then can copy and paste various site URLs that you believe are most relevant to your Swicki; for instance, I added Amazon to mine since a lot of people buy their Christmas presents from Amazon. Eurekster also gives you the option to type in URLs that you would NOT like search results to come from. You can also exclude adult-related sites. Below the Web section, you can check (or uncheck) the option to search blogs. Right now, Eurekster states " We're working on options to tune blog searches, for now your swicki will search all blogs." This is another search feature that will need to be fine-tuned. Last but not least, you're given the option to include search results from your site. If you check this box, your site's results will receive priority listing over any other results.
