During its time on the Web, the AltaVista search engine has undergone several revisions and continues to evolve. Though it faces competition from a number of worthy competitors, it's fair to say that AltaVista ranks as the most feature-rich general-purpose Web search tool. This book helps you get the most out of AltaVista's power, using tables and examples to show you how to get what you need.
The authors first explain how to do basic searches, then move on to more advanced searches with Boolean operators and AltaVista's special parameters. Chapters detail how to do such things as search Usenet newsgroups and how to translate hits into other languages. If, for instance, you want to limit a search to Australian pages, this guide details the procedure. A lengthy alphabetical chapter lists searches for particular targets and, in doing so, illustrates some unusual search strategies.
Those who publish their own Web sites will appreciate the chapter that reveals how AltaVista ranks the sites it indexes. Many of the engine's ranking algorithms are secret (and remain so), but many others are public and receive satisfactory coverage. An entertaining appendix lists the words most frequently used in Web pages (the is the big winner) and an Excite-like list of the most searched-for words (though apparently with the raunchiness edited out). --David Wall
Kurzbeschreibung
This volume provides comprehensive coverage of the AltaVista search engine. AltaVista is an Internet-based search service from Digital that provides access to the largest Web index: 31 million pages found on 628,000 servers (1,158,000 hostnames), and four million articles from 14,000 Usenet newsgroups. Using Digital technologies, pages on the Web are searched, sorted by occurrence of key words, indexes and stored on Digital's server, so that when users enter a word - a term, name, concept, product - AltaVista queries its indexes and reports back everywhere the word or term looked for can be found at that moment. AltaVista is accessed 31 million times per weekday, and provides the searching power behind many of the leading search services, including Yahoo, CNET's Search.com, 100 Hot Websites, LookSmart, LawCrawler, PeekABoo, TechWeb and others. Eric and Deborah Ray are co-authors of "Dummies 101: HTML", "Approach 97 for Windows for Dummies" and "Netscape Composer for Dummies".

Great resource, but padded with too much unnecessary stuff.,
Von andrews@toad.net (Crofton, Maryland) - Alle meine Rezensionen ansehen
Rezension bezieht sich auf: The AltaVista Search Revolution (Taschenbuch)
I loved the first edition of this good book. It made me a better searcher with AltaVista, which is what it's designed to do.The section on searches one can make with structural elements in the URL makes the book worthwhile, but all of that is handled in a single chapter. Why anyone would need Appendices on the most common words searched on AV, the frequency of words used in AV searches, or a sample of 1,000 queries is beyond me. The same goes with the chapter on the history of AltaVista. The subtitle is "How to find anything on the Internet." Nobody is buying a history of AltaVista. As good as the early pages are, the book runs out of gas about halfway through and loses itself in a lot of padding. I'd think twice about going for the second edition because I'm suspicious it's just more padding and that the essential stuff hasn't changed much. If you don't have the first edition, however, you might find even the first half of the second edition worth the price. Helfen Sie anderen Kunden bei der Suche nach den hilfreichsten Rezensionen

Good value,
Von Ein Kunde
Rezension bezieht sich auf: The Alta Vista Search Revolution: How to Find Anything on the Internet (Taschenbuch)
Let me say upfront that Alta Vista is my #1 search engine, and part of the reason I purchased this book was to become a better searcher. But the real reason was to optimize the chances of my web site getting Alta Vista hits. The book helped me on both counts--especially pointing out the need for Meta tags in the HTML header (but you won't find meta tags in the index). The development of Alta Vista by Digital makes for good reading, as well as the appendices on search word frequencies. The low point of the book is Ch. 6--106 pages of search examples that are not very interesting. I wish the book had been written with a bit more technical detail and much less filler. Given the book's low price, I would still rate it a good value
