Description

This handy guide to search engines allows readers to learn the tricks to using these Internet-indexing services to their maximum potential.

With an informative history of the development of search engines, this book teaches readers how this essential tool for the Web has advanced in its technology for categorizing websites and then pulling them up for users at the click of a search button.

A discussion of Cloud computing and other safety issues makes this a key read for anybody who wants to stay up on today's issues in Internet security.
