The Origins of Search Engines and SEO Writing

[nrumohammad0]

History teaches us that the first prototype of a search engine dates back to 1990: we are talking about Archie, short for archive , invented by Alan Emtage, a student at McGill University. The functions of this tool were very limited, because it limited itself to cataloging files contained on anonymous FTP servers that until then had been scattered across the Internet. We can therefore say that Archie was the starting point for a technological development that led us to the search engines of today.

In 1994, soon after the birth of the World Wide Web, Aliweb (Archie Like austria phone data Indexing for the Web) was launched with the aim of collecting all the existing sites in the world, including short descriptions of the pages and some keywords. With the increase in sites and the consequent growth of the Web, new search engines began to develop in line with the needs of that period.

Also in 1994, two Stanford University undergraduates, Jerry Yang and David Filo, created a list of their favorite hobby sites, dividing them into categories and subcategories. Their idea was very successful on the university campus, prompting them to make it official on the Web: Yahoo was born .
