Web Site Ranking Tips --> AOL NetFind

AOL NetFind has become one of the major players in the search engine wars. Since its launch in March of 1997, AOL has been able to use its large online user base to make its search engine a huge success. Because of some of the large name players on the Internet today have started their own search engines, like AOL, Microsoft's MSN and Netscape, the older search engines have had to scramble to try and keep up. With the power of AOL's client base and their recent acquisition of Netscape, we expect this search engine to be one of the major players for a long time to come.

AOL NetFind does not have its own database. It uses the Excite database to give its users the results for any searches they do. This has become very prominent in the past year. We see more and more of the Major Search Engines aligning themselves with each other and sharing databases.

Even though Excite and AOL NetFind share the same database they do not give exactly the same results. They seem to run slightly different algorithms. These are so close that we do not recommend making separate pages for these two search engines. If you can get a good ranking in Excite you should have the same or slightly different ranking on AOL NetFind.

Make sure you read our tips on how to get a high ranking in Excite and list your page with Excite and AOL NetFind. They both accept submissions and for the small amount of time it takes to list with them, you will have all your bases covered.
