Search Engines for Retrieving Information

-Dr. Lalit Kumar

Everyone is comfortable searching for desired information from search engines. It is very easy to do and user-friendly. Anyone can learn with the trial and error method. The knowledge of the system is not required for using Google or other search engines. Anyone can access a large quantum of information with a single click with the help of a search engine.

Search Engine for Information

Data Mining Tools:

The data mining tools for advanced search are used to retrieve the desired information quickly. Highly effective search algorithms are also used on the internet. It depends upon the search abilities of the user, how effectively he/she finds out the information. Suppose I want material on Financial Management in Government, preferably in .pdf file. How I will search?

Using Search Engine for Seeking Specific Format of Files:

Your answer will be, go to Google and search “Financial Management in Government *.pdf” and Google will show the files as under:

Using Search Engine 4

Seeking information with type and specific content:

The search content may also, be different. These skills of exploring the internet will provide you 10 times more data than the normal search on a search engine.

Privacy Concerns:

There are people, there are organizations that keep their exposure away from the internet for privacy concerns. The sensitive information is always not uploaded on the internet. Details are available and realized from the search engine only if someone uploads it on any webpage. Without uploading information, it cannot be retrieved by the users through search engines.

In this article, you learn how to seek desirable information in multiple ways to access a huge quantum of related data. I hope, you liked it. Your comments will suggest something to improve. Thanks.
