Search Engine : Can you ignore it further?

Are you listed?

Believe it or not only 16% of Bahrain's websites are listed on major search engines.

While search engine usage is growing all over the world including, Bahrain, major companies are still reluctant in accepting this statistics. Users all over the world are using 200+ million searches through Yahoo everyday and 350+ million searches through Google. While Bahrain's internet usage is over 150,000, corporate reluctance to be part of major search engine defies logic. Some even blame the available services in Bahrain. Very few companies are provide search engine optimization and Search Engine placing services.

In the era of search engine marketing, most websites in Bahrain are struggling to be listed on the popular three search engines, namely:

• Google
  www.google.com
  Voted four times Most Outstanding Search Engine by Search Engine Watch readers, Google has a well-deserved reputation as the top choice for those searching the web. The crawler-based service provides both comprehensive coverage of the web along with great relevancy.


• Yahoo
  www.yahoo.com
  Launched in 1994, Yahoo is the web's oldest "directory," a place where human editors organize web sites into categories. However, in October 2002, Yahoo made a giant shift to crawler-based listings for its main results which came from Google until February 2004. Now, Yahoo uses its own search technology.


• Ask Jeeves
  www.askjeeves.com
  Ask Jeeves initially gained fame in 1998 and 1999 as being the "natural language" search engine that let you search by asking questions and responded with what seemed to be the right answer to everything .In reality, technology was not what made Ask Jeeves perform so well. Behind the scenes, the company at one point had about 100 editors who monitored search logs. They then went out onto the web and located what seemed to be the best sites to match the most popular queries. Today, Ask Jeeves also depends on crawler-based technology to provide results to its users.
