Yahoo’s History as a Search Engine

November 28, 2008 by Admin

Yahoo began much in the same way as Google. A student at Stanford needed an idea and thus he launched his idea on the internet in 1994. While Yahoo is the first major search engine, it has not been able to keep up with Google’s innovations.

In 1995 Yahoo was so popular that they were able to incorporate and move to a new place in Silicon Valley. The investment of 2 million dollars was finally paying off. They have much in the way of internet communication, web search results, and media.

Yahoo has been one of the top email providers to consumers worldwide. They are also very popular as a search engine, but they are not at Google’s standards today. In fact the most popular news about Yahoo this year has been MSN’s offer to buy out Yahoo. Yahoo refused the offer for a buy out, saying that MSN was not offering the right price.

Yahoo is definitely a decent search engine, but what has changed their status is not keeping up with the times. Yahoo is a busier site and not just a search engine. For those who want a quick search and a great answer, Google wins every time.
