As someone who surfs the Internet frequently for research and writing, I tend to use search engines a lot. Now basically, all search engines are the same. The track and seek out relevant information based on keywords I specify. But when it comes to the relevance of those keywords, I have found Yahoo search to be the best. Others might claim that google search is the best while still others plum for AOL search or Netscape search. But for my usage and specifications, there is nothing to compare with Yahoo search. Let me tell you why.

The results pages come up as a result of the plain search, on a search engine. What is a plain search? Type in the keyword or keywords, and anything and everything related to that particular keyword is displayed for your benefit. Do you have the patience to go through website after website, seeking what you want? Forget it! Not only is the hunting exercise too much of a time-waster, but you cannot even guarantee that the information you get is truly credible! And what if you are in a hurry for some quick results? Not possible!

Now, Yahoo is different! Yahoo does not deal with plain searches, but with Boolean searches. No, this is not an African word! What this type of search signifies is that Yahoo does not display each and every page connected with the keyword or keywords. The results are based on how relevant the page is to your specifications; not getting every page with that particular keyword mentioned on it. There is another option open to the Net browser–searching via themes or categories. So just choose the category you want displayed, or the theme you want, and hey presto! Yahoo gets all the articles related to your theme or category plus your keyword (s) for you!

Any number of benefits are available to the Yahoo search engine user, since the search engine is presented as part of the main portal itself. If you should choose to look for Los Angeles, for instance, then Yahoo displays only pertinent information about the place–the map of the area, latest news updates, classifieds coming from that place, and description of Los Angeles. Other search engines would go the whole hog and put up lists and lists of websites containing the words, Los Angeles! Thus, the Yahoo search engine permits you to sort out what you want and what you want to discard (manual filtering); compare results with other themes as well as across themes; and access further information connected with your search results. Now, tell me of another search engine that offers so much!

Furthermore, using yahoo search, you can categorize all this information to reflect the best of what you need from your search results. So If I were working on a research article on Los Angeles and I typed in my query in yahoo search, the results I would get would not only be the most relevant, but also the most comprehensive from a number of channels perspective. These are the reasons why I prefer Yahoo search.
