The Impending Social Search Inflection Point
Search Engine Land
See publicationSearch has changed. Online consumer information retrieval has reached another inflexion point – a shift from pure algorithmic search to social search. Searchers have become increasingly sophisticated, and basic algorithmic web results are getting diluted out of most mainstream search experiences such as Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, AOL and Ask. Search is not solved. At their most sophisticated, users are still too often at a loss when executing a search. According to Jupiter, 41.2 percent of users…
Search has changed. Online consumer information retrieval has reached another inflexion point – a shift from pure algorithmic search to social search. Searchers have become increasingly sophisticated, and basic algorithmic web results are getting diluted out of most mainstream search experiences such as Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, AOL and Ask. Search is not solved. At their most sophisticated, users are still too often at a loss when executing a search. According to Jupiter, 41.2 percent of users report that general search results are often not directly relevant to queries, and 18 percent leave a search engine without having found the information they were seeking.
First, there was basic algorithmic search (such as AltaVista), and then came very predictable paid search business models to fuel innovation. The industry is now maneuvering through its third era: social search. Humans are still better at some things. Relevance remains number one. Throughout the past decade, a search engine’s most critical success factors – relevance, comprehensiveness, performance, freshness, and ease of use – have remained fairly stable. Relevance is more subjective than ever and must take into consideration the holistic search experience one user at a time. Inferring each user’s intent from a mere 2.1 search terms remains at the core of the relevance challenge

Paid Search Programs Finally Growing Up
Search Engine Watch
See publicationThe search industry has come a long way since the days of running poorly targeted banner advertisements on search results pages. Enhanced keyword targeting capabilities and powerful new bidding and ROI analysis tools have raised the value of search as a promotional channel for online -- and increasingly offline -- merchants.

Yet with all of the progress to date, paid search programs are still in their infancy and their rapid evolution continues. Two fundamental changes currently underway are blurring the traditional metrics and definitions that have divided paid listing and paid inclusion programs.

What's it Going to Take to Beat Google?
Search Engine Watch
See publicationThese days, the most popular tech parlor game after guessing Google's IPO date is speculating what it will take to knock the company off its throne as web search champ.

Search has changed dramatically since the early AltaVista days under Digital Equipment. The pure search and technology-centric engines left standing have transformed themselves into direct-marketing businesses. Too bad AltaVista was so busy thinking of itself as a portal while Overture was inventing performance-based keyword search marketing, and Google was laser-focused on relevancy, laying down the groundwork for its successfully relevant AdWord paid inclusion program.
So what's it going to take to beat Google? Here's a look at some of the critical factors search engines need to address to be successful in today's environment. -
