What is a search engine?
Search engines are web sites that feature software programs
designed to help you find what you are looking for on
the Internet. A search engine is like the card catalog
in a library. The card catalog directs you to books on
your selected topic and a search engine directs you to
web sites on your selected topic. Type in a word or phrase
and the search engine instantly brings back a list of
the located web sites that match what you entered.

How do search engines and directories work?
Search Engines are very complex software programs that categorize and locate web sites that relate to the word or words that you enter into the search. Each works a little differently, as each search engine will yield a different group of matches. Some Search Engines also have directory searches in addition to keyword searches. This organizes sites into categories, which allows you to narrow your search from general categories to a specific category with a list of sites that match your needs. Directories are very similar to an "online yellow pages."
Several utilize keywords or "meta tags" that can be put into the HTML coding of your site. For example, someone on the East Coast relocating to San Diego might use a search engine to look up "insurance in San Diego." If your web site has those keywords built in, and has been registered with that search engine, then your site could possibly be one of the sites found.
Not all search engines use keywords, but keywords are just one way to increase the likelihood that your site might come up in an Internet search. Search engines can also search the visible text on your site, as well as even the number of web sites out there that are linking to your site! Directories organize web sites by business type and in many cases regionally. Sometimes, the meta tags and content of your site have no bearing at all when someone is doing a search.
