  Recommended Search Engines to use!!!!   12/28/00
the main point is that if you only use Yahoo or Excite or AOL you miss half the stuff out there and also don't get it in a well organized useful format.

I personally never use Yahoo by itself, but I get results from it in my Copernic which compiles data from 12 search engines and gives me a nice report.

Google the absolute best -RATING 11/02 no need any others  

copernic.com/

this free software is what I use for all my searching.  it looks in 12 places and organizes the results by relevancy and it highlights the search words.... the best....  
 metagopher.com/ Powerfull free meta search tool. Use MetaGopher to search GoTo.com, Yahoo, Hotbot, Go Network, Webcrawler, Looksmart, and Altavista all at one time  
     
If you just use Yahoo ====> Not a good idea - it is very limited in finding the type of products we sell.  try using metagopher, Copernic  or one of the other search engines that looks at multiple databases rather than Yahoo which just looks at one.   If you just use Yahoo you will not find all you want.    I recommend you get Copernic since it looks in Yahoo also.  
Looksmart  is used by 5 main search engines to get info  
below are some other search sites that I never use by themselves
