Google’s Next Generation Search Technology

Friday, August 14th, 2009

Google’s Caffeine is the next generation search technology that is most widely spoken about in the search industry. Google has code named its new search engine as ‘Caffeine’. The search giants are challenging it to be a new version of the world dominating search engine and they have also said that it would be much more faster than the existing search engines and that they would be even more accurate.

It seems that the format and layout of the results page of this new search technology has not been changed and would look similar to the existing Google search results page. Therefore, most of the users would not be able to find any noticeable difference in the results page. However, the difference lies in the way the search system would gather information from the web for the key terms that are entered. As Google has assured that the results would be more accurate, users believe it to be more accurate.

In Google’s blog describing about this new project, they have written, “For the past several months, a large team of Googlers has been working on a secret project: a next-generation architecture for Google’s web search. It’s the first step in a process that will let us push the envelope on size, indexing speed, accuracy, comprehensiveness and other dimensions.” However, no other information is available that can explain more about the features or functionality of this new search technique.

Whatever updates might be done to the search system, in fact, it is not going to help websites that are still going to stay back in 50th or 60th page in the results page. This is because most of the internet users who search for information do not browse through the search results after one or two pages. They just change the search term and try to get more information. However, users who search for information would have more chances of getting the results more easily and more appropriately without having to browse through a number of websites to get the required information. Other than display of search results and information, no other information on how this new search system is going to rank pages is not available.

Many spammers and webmasters have been trying hundreds of new ways of developing tricks to get their websites’ links into Google’s list of relevant websites and the most popular list. This has been a real problem as users unknowingly click on such links and visit those pages. However, this upgrade to the search system is expected to have worked on this issue and have solved it. Whatever, it might be, it is a good news for users, as this would help them in getting what they want in a much simpler way.
