"Researchers say if you use a search engine like
Lycos or HotBot to search the Internet, you may not get as much coverage as you think.

Steve Lawrence and Lee Giles of the NEC Research Institute in Princeton, N.J., say they found that people who rely on the major search engines to find information on the Web only get a small proportion of the available documents. They estimated the Web contains 320 million pages of information -- much more than previously published estimates.

The Web is a reservoir of both known and hidden content.

According to bright planet.com's calculations, there are more than 100,000 "deep" (hidden) Web sites (nearly 550 billion individual documents) residing in searchable databases that can only be mined by direct query. The content of these Web pages is not indexable by conventional search engines because their data constantly changes. Because users lack the tools to query them directly, these pages remain largely hidden from view.

Bright planet claims that its Lexibot linguistic-based search agent can get beneath the Web's surface using directed queries. Download the Beta version and try it free for 30 days.
