Search Results Quality

Mahalo.com states its goal is to improve search results by eliminating search spam from low-quality websites, such as those that have excessive advertising, distribute malware, or engage in phishing scams. Webmasters have a vested interest in seeing their sites listed. Jason Calacanis, the founder of Mahalo.com, has said that algorithmic search engines, like Google and Yahoo!, suffer from manipulation by search engine optimization practitioners. Mahalo.com's reliance on human editors is intended to avoid this problem by producing search results that are more relevant to the user.

Famous quotes containing the words search, results and/or quality:

    “why
    Do our black faces search the empty sky?
    Is there something we have forgotten? some precious thing
    We have lost, wandering in strange lands?”
    —Arna Bontemps (1902–1973)

    ““The ideal reasoner,” he remarked, “would, when he had once been shown a single fact in all its bearings, deduce from it not only all the chain of events which led up to it but also all the results which would follow from it.””
    —Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)

    “Upon the whole, necessity is something, that exists in the mind, not in objects; nor is it possible for us ever to form the most distant idea of it, consider’d as a quality in bodies. Either we have no idea of necessity, or necessity is nothing but that determination of thought to pass from cause to effects and effects to causes, according to their experienc’d union.”
    —David Hume (1711–1776)
