Search Engines are mushrooming every day. Therefore, maintaining a list of search engines is a difficult task.

There are many types of search engines, including ones that are Tags based, meta Tag based, Key word based or organic. Engines like Google, MSN, Yahoo, ASK etc are all organic search engines.

A search engine consists of many advanced algorithms, in order to look for key parts that might relate to what you're searching for.

Search Engines find words listed in the keywords and content of a webpage. Search engines find web sites by using web Spiders (software) that crawl the internet. Spiders can start at highly visible sites (such as news organizations) or the home page of an individual's web site, and the spiders follow the links that are connected from sites to other sites. This is a continuous process.

Some examples of search engines include:

  1. Google, the most widely used search engine in the world.
  2. Ask
  3. Ehow
  4. Bing
  5. Yahoo (which uses a variant of Google's search engine.)
  6. AltaVista
  7. MSN / LIVE
  8. Alexa
  9. Excite
  10. Dogpile (a combined search engine)
  11. Metaspider
  12. Megaspider
  13. Lycos
  14. Cuil
  15. AOL Search
  16. Kngine
  17. webcrawler
  18. lycos
  19. kosmix
  20. duckduckgo
  21. yebol
  22. ujiko
  23. big mamma
  24. kartoo
  25. Jeeves
  26. MSN
  27. WebCrawler
  28. LyGO
  29. Lycos
  30. Mama
