Even though Google tends to be the current be all and end all when it comes to search, there are still competitors attempting to eke out a little web corner. Clueray is one search engine forging the way to better search.
Instead of focusing on keywords, which can be hit or miss, Clueray goes beyond the keyword. Clueray, like so many new search engines, has taken the semantic route to search. They’ve patented their technique as IntentMatch technology, which clusters search results based on document intent. That is to say, Clueray uses a combination of keywords plus intent of document—learning, exploring, interactive, etc—to provide a more targeted search. This sort of recommendation search engine lets users fine tune their search to find what they really what versus thousands of pages that have nothing to do with the topic of choice. Clueray is currently in the first phase of public beta and is free to try out.
