What do these search results reveal about
the search engine?
§ HotBot searches all the pages on a
particular site
(not just the main page or the actual
homepage)
§ HotBot uses the
first few words of the page for its
descriptions
§ HotBot’s
database is probably compiled based on searches
of the first few words (usually first 100) of any page’s text
(which
means that if the searched terms are 150 words into the page, that particular page won’t be
retrieved)
