Search the Internet

Which search tool should you use?
Search Engines:"Search Engines" typically "index" about 15-20% of the Internet, giving you numbers of sites compiled by a computer. These sites are usually not evaluated, except according to mathematical relevancy.
Directories These are useful when you are trying to locate several resources that fall under a broad subject, but you don't have specific resources in mind. 

 

 

 
 

 

Meta-Search Engines These sites will search more than one search engine at once, theoretically giving you more "hits" and more relevant "hits."
