Hakia: No Brand Search Taste Test

January 20, 2010

If you want to run a query and see how Google’s results and Hakia’s results stack up, navigate to NoBrandSearch.com. Google uses its PageRank method plus the accretions added to the core voting system since 1998. Hakia is “a general purpose “semantic” search engine, dedicated to quality search experience. To achieve this goal, our team aspires to establish a new standard of focus, clarity and credibility in Web search.” If you are not familiar with Hakia, you can get basic information and learn about the company’s software and services on the firm’s Web site. For a slightly deeper look at the company’s approach, you can read the interview with Riza C. Berkan in the Search Wizards Speak series on ArnoldIT.com. A running score shows which search system’s results are perceived as “better”. Interesting to run some queries.

A freebie. I did visit the Hakia offices, and I think I got a bottle of water. Otherwise, this is a post done to point out this service. I will report the lack of payment to the Rural Business-Cooperative Service.
