Is WikiAnswers a good or a bad search engine?

Actually, WikiAnswers isn't a search engine - it has several search features, but examples of true search engines would be Google or AltaVista. A search engine searches for information based on keywords and returns a listing of sites where the information can be found. WikiAnswers is a wiki-based Q&A site, where questions and answers are grown and edited collaboratively by the community. What's nice about WikiAnswers is that you can search for AND find the information you are looking for all in one place. So, the answer to your question is, "No. WikiAnswers is not a bad search engine because it's not a search engine at all."

Their search algorithms are different; however because neither search engine provides details on what is involved in their ranking algorithm, there is no way to know the exact differences.
