The Year In Search - Web Search 2005

The Year In Search - About Web Search September 2005

By Wendy Boswell, About.com

September 2005 was the start of the 100 Search Engines in 100 Days project, we looked at setting basic security options in Firefox, and we learned how to check search engine rankings in Google, Yahoo, and MSN.

Search for archives on the Web, find out why search engine optimization is important, and find blogs easily with blog search engines.

Check out the A to Z search engine directory, find out the impact of the World Wide Web on society, see the list of the top ten search engine optimization blogs, look at arts and humanities resources on the Invisible Web, and search for research and reference experts on the Web.

Read an interview with SLI Systems, test your Harry Potter knowledge in the September scavenger hunt, read my interview with ProBlogger Darren Rowse, check out Blinkx, an audio and video search engine, and learn more about MrSapo, an all-in-one search engine.

Search engines profiled this month included A9, Info.com, Scirus, Topix, and Clusty.

Google got sued by the Authors Guild, 93 search engine ranking factors was an incredibly useful site, Google and NASA teamed up, and the Literature Map was one of my favorite picks.
