Dogpile Search Engine Builds On Its IntelliFind Technology With New Features

Dogpile® (www.dogpile.com), the metasearch engine that delivers the best results from the leading search engines, today announced new feature enhancements that utilize Dogpile's unique IntelliFind(TM) technology to better respond to queries with results from an array of specialized content sources.
IntelliFind is a sophisticated query analysis system designed to improve the relevancy of Dogpile results by assessing the likely intent behind every query and searching only the content sources that are likely to return highly relevant results. IntelliFind launched in November 2004 and was the result of a year-long development effort.

With this launch, IntelliFind now supports the integration of yellow pages content on Web search results pages when relevant to a user's query. The feature is currently in beta. Whenever IntelliFind identifies that the likely intent behind a query is to find information on a local business, Dogpile now returns yellow pages listings in a box at the top of the results set. With this new functionality, Dogpile is able to better respond to the growing number of users who turn to search engines to find information on nearby businesses.

Another new feature, Web Site Match, helps users navigate the Web more efficiently by matching every query against a database of the most popular Web sites and suggesting exact matches at the top of the results set. The Web Site Match feature was developed in response to the growing number of navigational queries - queries entered at a search engine by a user intending to reach a specific Web site. To save users time and frustration, Web site Match employs a listing of common misspellings to guide users to their destination even if their query is misspelled.

"We've made these latest enhancements to Dogpile in our ongoing efforts to identify the likely intent behind every search and to respond with the most relevant content," said Melissa Turtel, senior product manager for Dogpile. "Our users can look forward to additional product updates over the coming months that will make their search experience more productive and more enjoyable."
