FyberSearch Upgrades Relevancy, User Friendliness and Adds more Advanced Features
March 29, 2005 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
Burien, Wash. - March 29th, 2005 — The search engine FyberSearch has been upgraded with a re-designed relevancy algorithm, improved user interface and two new advanced search features.This is the second of two major updates that have been made to FyberSearch. More developments are obviously to come but FyberSearch is now at a very competitive place in terms of the relevancy of search results and advanced features available to users.
Before this point FyberSearch was not incorporating link popularity into it's algorithm. Now that the technology to do this has been completed the FyberSearch results are more competitive than ever before.
The two new advanced features that have been added are called "Search Type" and "Page Type". This results in FyberSearch having 14 total advanced features for searching the web, more than most major search engines. The search typ: arature allows users to tell FyberSearch if they are looking for an official website or general information and as a result, FyberSearch will change its ranking algorithm to fit the user's information needs. Most, if not all search queries end up being about one of these two types of information so it is a real advantage that FyberSearch allows users to specify which type of search results they are looking for. The page type feature allows users to view only web pages of a specific type such as a "contact us" page or a "faq" page. For more info about both of these features please visit http://www.fybersearch.com/help.php.
There have also been features added to improve the user experience at FyberSearch. The advanced page has been redesigned at http://www.fybersearch.com/advanced.php. The implementation of stop words has been improved so that users can choose to include them in their search by placing a plus sign in front of the word. If the only word in a search query is a stop word then FyberSearch will search for the word by default. Another helpful feature is that if a user searches for a URL and no results are found then FyberSearch will provide that user with a link to the URL instead.
