Internet Search and Research.
According to the results of a study published by Cyveillance in July 2000, the World Wide Web is
estimated to contain more than two billion pages of publicly-accessible
information. As if the Web's immense size weren't enough to strike fear
in the heart of all but the most intrepid surfers, consider that the Web
continues to grow at an exponential rate: tripling in size over the past
two years, according to one estimate.
Imagine
you are searching for information in the world's largest library, where
the books and journals (stripped of their covers and title pages) are
shelved in no particular order, and without reference to a central
catalogue. A researcher's nightmare?
Taken all
the above, together with the irrelevance of 70% of search results,
imagine how many hours are required to undertake Internet research on a
subject, particular which cross matching the search which other relevant
criteria.
Using a Virtual Assistant with knowledge of search engines
and website prioritizations releases those valuable hours for core
business functionality. At the end of the day it is the search results
that are important not the search itself.....
