It now appears to return all results from its own growing ElasticSearch index. Open source. * Infotiger: My favorite engine in this section. It offers advanced result filtering and sports a somewhat large index. It allows site submission for English and German pages. The fastest-improving engine in this section; I look forward to the day it "graduates" to the previous section. Infotiger also has a Tor hidden service. * seekport: The interface is in German but it supports searching in English just fine. The default language is selected by your locale. It’s really good considering its small index; it hasn’t heard of less common terms, but it’s able to find relevant results in other tests. It's the second-fastest-improving engines in this section. * Exalead: slow, quality is hit-and-miss. Its indexer claims to crawl the DMOZ directory, which has since shut down and been replaced by the Curlie directory. No relevant results for “Oppenheimer” and some other history-related queries. Allows submitting individual URLs for indexing, but requires solving a Google reCAPTCHA and entering an email address. diff --git a/content/posts/search-engines-with-own-indexes.md b/content/posts/search-engines-with-own-indexes.md index 37a1f5f..e10953c 100644 --- a/content/posts/search-engines-with-own-indexes.md +++ b/content/posts/search-engines-with-own-indexes.md @@ -83,7 +83,7 @@ Bing - PrivacyWall - Lilo - Search­Scene - - Peekier + - Peekier (not to be confused with Peekier, a metasearch engine with its own index) - Oscobo - Million Short - Yippy search[^6] @@ -137,7 +137,7 @@ Yep supports Open Graph and some JSON-LD at the moment.
