Top 100 Alternative Search Engines

"...while it looks like a very simple, almost crude list of 100 names, it has taken countless hours to try and do it properly and fairly."

Ask anyone which search engine they use to find information on the Internet and they will almost certainly reply: "Google." Look a little further, and market research shows that people actually use four main search engines for 99.99% of their searches: Google, Yahoo!, MSN, and Ask.com (in that order). But in my travels as a Search Engine Optimizer (SEO), I have discovered that in that .01% lies a vast multitude of the most innovative and creative search engines you have never seen. So many, in fact, that I have had to limit my list of the very best ones to a mere 100.

But it's not just the sheer number of them that makes them worthy of attention; each one of these search engines has that standard "About Us" link at the bottom of the homepage. I call it the "why we're better than Google" page. And after reading dozens and dozens of these pages, I have come to the conclusion that, taken as a whole, they are right!

This list is in alphabetical order. Feel free to share this list:

In terms of SEO one should concentrate on the Google, as it is the most used search engine which people use. Reflecting on this search will surely result in an increase sales.
