Dogpile Search Engine Review
by Paul Flyer
Dogpile is a Searcher’s Search Engine. Searcher’s Search Engines are different than Marketer’s Search Engines. A marketers search engine is Google. The goal of most websites is to try and get noticed within Google. It has the most traffic, the most use, the most potential customers. However, engines like Dogpile are different. Dogpile compiles results from all four top search engines in order to give the searcher better results and greater access to those results.
The top search engines all produced different results. With Dogpile, all those are aggregated to give the searcher the best of the best. Dogpile offers a search engine comparison tool to demonstrate this. Enter search terms and watch the graphic as Dogpile demonstrates how the results from the GYM are unique and how Dogpile tries to pull them together.
After conducting a search, Dogpile allows users to see how Dogpile results vary from the majors. These results can be listed side by side. The user can then easily compare results. In actuality it allows the user to see MORE results and thus find exactly what they are looking for.
In terms of actually being able to track something down, Dogpile is a far more friendlier tool to the searcher than other search engines. Searchers ask questions, search engines provide answers. Dogpile helps searchers in two ways. By providing more relevance and by exposing searchers to a broader base of relevant results. As a searcher, consider the advantages of using Dogpile:
- Aggregated results from Google, Yahoo, MSN and Ask Jeeves provide the best of the best
- The ability to see results from the GYM alongside Dogpile results means MORE results. More results means a greater opportunity to find what you are looking for.
- Dogpile highlights results that are unique to each search engine. This simply translates into more resources for searchers to find their answer.
- Searchers are getting savvier. Dogpile matches their savviness.
- Dogpile saves time. Access to all the major search engines on one page keeps searchers from having to run searches on multiple search engines simultaneously.
