Are You Dog Tired
 Of Slow Search Engines And Slow Speed Results

  Around the offices of BizNet Magazine we would be lost without the Internet and the use of search engines.  Speaking for myself, I spend about an average of 3 hours on the net each day.  I go in needing information on one thing or another.  I get the information, and get off the net.  I don’t have the time to waste on search engines that take forever or give me 2,896,797 or more hit, on a subject I know is going to be hard to find any information on.

 

In the beginning I loved Yahoo.  Until it started with routinely giving me useless hits.  Now, as far as I’m concerned, it’s worthless.

 

Then I started to use Alta Vista.  Until it started with all those useless hits, etc...

 

Then I started using Hotbot......  Ect........

 

Why do so many companies insist on screwing up a great search engine by improving the way it searches to the point that it gives you so many hits, it’s totally worthless even if the answer you’re looking for is buried in there somewhere!

 

Well, I have discovered that when it comes to dinging out the information from all those search engines, I have a new love.

Dogpile.  Try it you will see an amazing thing.  It is extremely fast...  And I mean FAST!  I do not know how it runs so fast but I don’t care how.  I just know it saves me a ton of time.

 

Now Dogpile is not your usual search engine.  In fact it does not search the net the same way the other search engines do.  What Dogpile does is to search the search engines.  It takes your search to several search engines and lists the results from all the search engines.

 

Now here is the part I love.  It gives you the results faster then if you ran the search on the subject search engine yourself.  Don’t believe me?  Try it yourself.  Go to say excite (http://www.excite.com) enter any search you want to.  Start the search and time it to see how long it takes to get your hits.  Then go to http://www.dogpile.com and try the same search.  Dogpile will get the results faster and not only from Excite, but from several other search engines at the same time.

 

To save even more time when searching, try right clicking on any links you want to follow.  Instead of opening the link in the window you’re looking at, have your browser open it in a new window.  This way you can keep reading the rest of the results as the “new” page loads.  If you do this with all the links you want to follow, you will find you spend more time reading, then waiting for a link to load.  Don’t forget to close the windows when you're done reading the inf., or you will end up with too many windows open and hit memory problems.

 

So, make Dogpile your first search engine of choice.  I believe you will find it the fastest way to get information from your favorite search engine.
