Google Goes Deeper With Some Searches
Adds second search barGoogle has added a second search bar to some of its search results in an effort to help users get better and more specific results.
The Official Google Blog explains. “We call this ‘teleporting’, and we’re pleased that we have been able to minimize the need to remember an alphabet soup of .coms, .nets, and .orgs out of everyone’s lives.”
“However, one of the trends we noticed while studying teleporting was that there were lots of searchers who would type the name of a specific website as if they wanted to
teleport, but would then immediately issue another more a refined search within this site.”
If a user searches for terms including “NASA”, “New York Times” or “Amazon” they will be able to checkout the new search tool. The second search bar feature will be based on an algorithm.
Google says, “This feature will now occur when we detect a high probability that a user wants more refined search results within a specific site. Like the rest of our snippets, the sites that display the site search box are chosen algorithmically based on metrics that measure how useful the search box is to users.”
