Investigating Google’s Search Engine by Rosie Graham Pdf

What do search engines do? And what should they do? These questions seem relatively simple but are actually urgent social and ethical issues. The influence of Google's search engine is enormous. It does not only shape how Internet users find pages on the World Wide Web, but how we think as individuals, how we collectively remember the past, and how we communicate with one another. This book explores the impact of search engines within contemporary digital culture, focusing on the social, cultural, and philosophical influence of Google. Using case studies like Google's role in the rise of fake news, instances of sexist and misogynistic Autocomplete suggestions, and search queries relating to LGBTQ+ values, it offers original evidence to intervene practically in existing debates. It also addresses other understudied aspects of Google's influence, including the profound implications of its revenue generation for wider society. In doing this, this important book helps to evaluate the real cost of search engines on an individual and global scale.

Google’s Algorithm Explained by IntroBooks Team Pdf

Google makes improvements to the ranking algorithm nearly every single day. Several of them are minor tweaks; some shake up the SERPs severely. Google's algorithms construe as an enlightened method used for extracting data from its search database and providing the best possible results for a question instantly. Using a mixture of algorithms and various ranking signals, the search engine offers web pages ranked by importance on its SERPs (search engine results pages). Google has only made a couple of changes to its algorithms in its formative days. Today, every year, Google makes thousands of improvements. A majority of these changes are so small that they go unnoticed altogether. Nonetheless, the search engine periodically rolls out significant algorithmic updates which have a huge effect on SERPs such as: · Intrusive interstitials update · Fred · RankBrain · Mobilegeddon · Penguin · Panda · Pigeon · Hummingbird · Page layout algorithm · Payday · Exact match domain (EMD)

Google's PageRank and Beyond by Amy N. Langville,Carl D. Meyer Pdf

The Search by John Battelle Pdf

What does the world want? According to John Battelle, a company that answers that question—in all its shades of meaning—can unlock the most intractable riddles of business and arguably of human culture itself. And for the past few years, that’s exactly what Google has been doing. But The Search offers much more than the inside story of Google’s triumph. It’s a big-picture book about the past, present, and future of search technology and the enormous impact it’s starting to have on marketing, media, pop culture, dating, job hunting, international law, civil liberties, and just about every other sphere of human interest.
