Think of search engines as a fast-as-lightning online researcher who is able to collect and sort by relevance, many and various information on a topic of interest needed by a particular user. There are many search engines available in the internet (the most popular of which is Google, if I may say so myself). These search engines have 3 components – the first component gets all the web pages it can find; the next component then builds an index of those pages; the third component is the one that actually serves lists of pages matching a user’s inquiry.
