• When a person performs a search at any of the major engines, they demand results instantaneously – even a 1 or 2 second delay can cause DISSATISFACTION, so the engines work hard to provide answers as fast as possible.

• Search engines are answer machines. When a person looks for something online, GOOGLE do two things– first, return only those results that are relevant or useful to the searcher’s query, and second, rank those results in order of perceived usefulness.
