Google: Site Search Tweak for Publishers

November 14, 2008

DMSNews published on November 13, 2008, “Google Launches On Demand Indexing for Publishers.” You should take a gander at this interesting article here. The author, Mary Elizabeth Hurn, describes Google’s new on demand indexing service. The service is, from what I understand, an extension of Google’s site search service. The new service includes more controls over what the Site Search robot does. The one demand service will, according to Ms. Hurn, “effect only searches within a publisher’s site and not searches done from Google.com.” In the 1980s, indexing was the primary source of revenue for commercial database producers and companies such as Dialog Information Services and LexisNexis. Google continues to move into the high-value content arena. My thought is that the Library of Congress may face competition from the Google.
