June 5: Web Search Enhanced

The integrated web search is now even better than before. We still do NOT collect or share ANY personal information and now you are searching many popular search engines simultaneously and anonymously. Combined, these engines cover more of the Internet than any one search engine alone.

A search result is awarded one star (*) for every search engine that chooses it as one of the ten best results for your search. So a five star (*****) result means that five search engines agreed on the result.

This is significant because search engines choose results in different ways, and each approach works well in some cases and poorly in others. A result with many stars was chosen for many different reasons, and is a consensus choice of many search engines.

Also, while irrelevant Web pages can be "optimized" to fool a single search engine's algorithm, it is much harder for a page to fool all the search engines.

Additionally, find phone numbers and addresses worldwide, or search through 18 million hours of video. We set up a poll in our WAZZUB Community. Please tell us if you would prefer the new or the old search.
