List of Top notch Search Engines

Hi PPl,

This is my very first post on any blog site. Actually have created this blog for sharing my experience in the field of SEO.
From past 3 years I am working in an SEO firm and have worked on various sites. During this period I have searched for SEO related books and information extensively on the web and found some intersting stuf regarding SEO which I would like to share with you all.

SEO means Search Engine Optimisation. This is an ongoing process of getting one’s site ranked in the search engines to boost its online business. Now what is a search engine ? There are around 70 major search engines across the Globe. However the major share is held by Google, Yahoo, MSN. These 3 has a well-deserved reputation as the top choice for those searching the web.

I am giving a brief information about all the search engines known to me along with these 3 giants. This information is derived from internt.
