How Google Works (Infographic)

This is what happen after you type keywords on Google search and click enter. This complex process is all done in less than a second, 300 million times a day, generating over $20 billion a year for Google!

From official word:

The software behind our search technology conducts a series of simultaneous calculations requiring only a fraction of a second. Traditional search engines rely heavily on how often a word appears on a web page. We use more than 200 signals, including out patented PageRank algorithm, to examine the entire link structure of the web and determine which pages are most important. We then conduct hypertext-matching analysis to the specific search being conducted. By combining overall importance and query-specific relevance, we’re able to put the most relevant and reliable results first.

    1. @lowrobb This always amazes me. Do you think Open Graph will beat it in far future if not in near? Re: How Google Works (Infographic)

      1. @aperdana long way ahead for Facebook, IMO. Google gets people’s trust already. But my feeling is, Twitter will get there before Facebook.

        1. @lowrobb But Twitter’s interconnectedness between topics/links is almost zero compared to both. Only ranking based on RTs not good enough.

          1. @aperdana true, but they hv also algorithms for determining user’s authority, convos etc. what they’re doing could be huge.

          2. @lowrobb True that, though. If Twitter could be acquired by Google, then it would be the best thing probably, no?

          3. @aperdana IMO, that’s the last thing the world need. but i think folks at Twitter know already they could be as big if not bigger than Goog.

          4. @aperdana once Twitter can define their service to the mainstream, every one w/ cellphone will jump in & fill their web w/ contents & links.

          5. @aperdana sometimes after that, Twitter will become the biggest content authorities on this planet, i believe. I could be wrong though 😀

          6. @lowrobb Good points. Interesting to see. My interest to this is pretty new somehow. Quite a newbie. 🙂 Thanks for sharing.
