VaBeachGuy 12 Posted April 21, 2003 In my efforts to help us grow I submitted STARTREKFANS.NET to Yahoo and Google for inclusion in their listings. Tonight I checked and we're now listed on Google! Check it out here: STARTREKFANS.NET on Google We still aren't on Yahoo yet but I'm working on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cptwright 1 Posted April 21, 2003 cool, but hey i use lycos, whats so much better about google. What's so much better? We're listed on Google that's what ok i deserved that one. but i think you know what i meant by the question. i just hear a lot of people say do a google, but i always had good luck with lycos. so i was wondering is their something different about it or just another name, but this one has us on it.

I've heard that Google runs on a new kind of search sotftware that is supposedly better then all the other search engines. I myself use Yahoo more often then Google. Google is on the Portal page only because that's the only option I am given in the portal setup tool. In all honesty, I don't see a lot of difference in Google and Yahoo (Other then the fact that we are in Google and not in Yahoo yet). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
master_q 0 Posted April 22, 2003 That’s good! Hopefully in the future we will clime up the #s to be on the first page, but where we are now is great! Master Q StarTrek_Master_Q@yahoo.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xeroc 0 Posted April 22, 2003 Cool!!! That will hopefully help get more members!!! Also, the reason Google is considered better than Yahoo is that Google lists pages by links rather than the number of times your search word appears. For example: You search for "battery" On Google: Website with 1000 links to it. Website with 1000 mentions of "battery" On Yahoo: Website with 1000 mentions of "battery" Website with 1000 links to it. Google then favors sites people recommened more by linking to it. I think Google is better than the other search engines. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
