AllTheWeb Overview
Powered by Yahoo, AllTheWeb
has one of the largest search engine databases in the world,
possibly even the largest. That said, it is important to achieve
good search engine placement with AlltheWeb. AllTheWeb.com
has the fastest average response of any search engine coming
in at under a half a second per search.
AlltheWeb combines one of the largest and freshest indices
and includes some of the most powerful search features in
the industry. The AlltheWeb index includes billions of web
pages as well as tens of millions of PDF and MS Word®
files, and supports searching in 36 different languages.
AllTheWeb Search Results
AllTheWeb is primarily an algorithmically based search engine.
To list well in AllTheWeb it is important to use appropriate
keywords throughout the page copy and especially in the page
title. Since Yahoo! purchased AllTheWeb, it has added new
features to allow more specific file type searches and quick
domain statistics such as last updated and whois. AllTheWeb
receives all of its main or organic listings from Yahoo!
and its sponsored listings from Overture.
Unlike many other search sites, AllTheWeb provides you with
the tools you need to find exactly what you are looking for,
and includes some of the most sophisticated advanced search
features available online.
AlltheWeb's news search offers up to the minute news from
thousands of news sources all around the world. AlltheWeb
indexes hundreds of stories every minute.
AlltheWeb also has image, audio, and video searches with hundreds
of millions of multimedia files.
AlltheWeb and FAST Search
AllTheWeb used to be owned by a company called FAST,
or FAST Search and Transfer, and was used to showcase the
company's web search technology. That is why you still find
AllTheWeb referred to as FAST or FAST Search.
In February 2003, Overture acquired
WiseNut for $100 million, and not
long after, Overture snapped up AllTheWeb for about $140 million.
ALLTheWeb later become Yahoo's property when Yahoo bought
Overture. It no longer has any connection or affiliation with
FAST.

to get listed for free, although AllTheWeb does accept submissions
via its Submit
Your Site page.

AlltheWeb.

index.
- Overture Pay-For-Performance.
