Description

 Search engine website construction and use method

 The invention relates to a method for constructing and using a search engine website, in particular to a control method for constructing and using a search engine website. Background technique

 Existing search engine websites use a combination of static pages and dynamic pages, and use the structure of a category directory plus a robot search program to construct a website to provide users with information query and retrieval services. The classified directory is a static webpage or a dynamic webpage generated after querying the database. The hierarchical database is used to access the website's database to provide customers with information. The robotic search program uses a customized search program to access the website's database for searching and The retrieval work is provided as a service to the user.

 Existing search engine websites are very convenient to use. You can search down and find information according to the category and level, or you can enter keywords to be searched by a robot search program. The search targets of existing search engine websites are basically web pages and websites. In order to find the information to the maximum, there are many choices on the homepage of a general search engine website, and the robot search program can also enter any keywords. The search result provided to the user after the search may be 0 or may be Many, even astronomical figures. For example: Enter the keyword "American University" on the search engine website YAH00 (Yahoo), and you will get more than 18,000 results. This is only the current result. Over time, there will be more and more, but the real ones are already registered. Of the US-based universities, including colleges, are only over 3,500, and if you need more results, you can also click the "More Results" webpage instruction, then you will get more "Results"!

 Therefore, the biggest problem of the existing search engine website business model lies in the complete freedom of information in the construction and use of search engine websites, and the uncontrolled provision and acquisition. For users, the "information highway" and "information ocean" can be easily accessed through the Internet, but at the same time they will be overwhelmed by a lot of useless information provided by the "information ocean". Select useful information from the information or give a search result of 0 after a long search; For the construction of search engine websites, because of the use of robot search programs, a lot of useless information is searched, which reduces the search engine's Work efficiency wasted computer network resources.

August 14, 2000 E1 Seventh Edition Reference News (The Associated Press, San Francisco, July 27, by Telegram) Title: New research shows that the Internet is much bigger than people think (Reporter Michael, Little (G) reported that the latest research report published by a BrightPlant company in South Dakota, the United States, shows that they use the new software developed to estimate that approximately 550 billion files are currently stored on the Internet. All the previous search engines can only retrieve about 1 billion web pages. The report estimates that the capacity of the Internet is 500 times the network distribution map provided by popular search engines such as: YAHOO ^ ALTAVISTA and GOOGLE.COM. On the one hand, nearly 70% of websites on the Internet have never been visited. On the other hand, useful information resources are disturbed by a large amount of useless information. The biggest weakness of traditional search engine websites lies in this.

 At present, the countermeasures taken by the existing search engine websites on the problem of "spam" are mainly to improve the procedures and formulate the algorithmic language. The results are not satisfactory. The inventor believes that to fundamentally solve the problem of "spam", it is necessary to start by changing the construction mode of the search engine website, that is, to change the construction and use of the search engine website. Disclosure of invention

 The object of the present invention is to solve the problem of "spam" of the former search engine website, that is, the search results are too many and do not match the target. After a long search, the search has no results (0), and provides an accurate, authentic, and effective A controlled method for the construction and use of search engine websites that provide search information.

 First, the information service provider (ICP) controls the source of the information. The source of information for a search engine website is limited to a limited target, which is an entity, that is, a concrete existence, and not just a website or web page. The website or webpage will exist as a special type of entity and will be subdivided. For example, in a commercial search engine website, the information source is limited to the subject of economic activities-natural and legal persons, that is, the provider of the product or service. For limited related information, the product will exist as an extension of the main information in a subset of the related information.

Second, the information service provider (ICP) uses a combination of static and dynamic pages to search, and entity information is stored in the database. During the entire search process, the users of the website are under the control of the search engine provided by the information service provider. Once the user enters a key field, the search engine will identify this key field and find out the information in the database. The service provider provides a limited number of key fields with a limited target, and ultimately reaches the user's search target. When an information service provider (ICP) uses a catalog for searches, it can use static and dynamic pages to control the search process. The user must search from the main directory to the next lower sub-directory in a categorized manner based on the keywords provided by the information service provider until the required entity information is found. In ICP, a robotic search program is used for searching. Status page controls the search process. The user must enter the restricted keywords according to the keyword input rules notified in advance by the information service provider (ICP). The robot search program retrieves the corresponding entity information from the database.

Brief description of the drawings

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a database structure of a search engine website according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a search engine website according to an embodiment of the present invention. The best way to implement the invention

 Generally, the scheme of establishing a website mainly adopts virtual hosting and hosting. Virtual hosting is renting network space, using static pages or dynamic pages for searching, making all categories and entities and their attributes information into web pages, and then linking them together. Hosting should provide one or more servers. Generally, a World Wide Web (WWW SERVER) server and a database server (DATABASE SERVER) are used, and a combination of static and dynamic pages is used for searching. The information of categories and entities and their attributes are all stored in the database, and the background public gateway interface (CGI) program is used to access the database and control the access to entity information. The embodiment of the present invention introduces a method of constructing and using a commercial search engine website by taking hosting as an example.

 Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a database structure of a search engine website according to an embodiment of the present invention. The database uses a hierarchical model, that is, a tree structure, and the bottom of the tree structure is entity information. The root category in the figure is the largest category of entity classification, the second category is a subclass of the root category, and the third category is a subclass of the second category, and so on until the specific entity information. Each layer of the data structure is a one-to-many relationship. Each fragment in the data structure is equivalent to a record in the database. Each fragment consists of multiple fields. The database administrator defines the name of a fragment and the name and data type (character, numeric, etc.) and length of each field in it as needed. Each fragment defines a key field to identify the fragment value, which should uniquely identify a fragment value. The prerequisite for a fragment to exist is that its parent fragment exists in the database record. When searching for key words with the controlled search engine of the present invention, the user can only perform a hierarchical search using a category directory and a robot search program according to the regulations of the information provider, and finally find the required target information.

In the embodiment of the commercial search engine website, the information source is limited to a natural person or a legal person, that is, the limited related information of a provider of goods or services. There are only three root categories: region, industry, and product. As shown in FIG. 2, it is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of a commercial search engine. In this embodiment, a user needs to search for information about a manufacturer of running shoes. First of all, a category search is used as an example. The user selects a product category based on the root category provided by the information service provider, selects daily necessities in the next level, selects clothing, shoes and hats in the next level, and selects shoes in the next level. , And so on until the information of the manufacturer of the sports shoes required by the user is found.

 Taking the robot search program as an example, after the user is informed of the keyword input rules, the user can only enter keywords defined by the information service provider. The user enters "sneakers", and then the program searches the database of each level in Figure 1 from top to bottom until the relevant keywords are found. If no relevant keywords are found, the user is prompted through the page " Sorry, please enter keywords as required. If keywords related to sneakers are found, all categories belonging to "sneakers" will be taken out and returned to the user. In this way, the user sees a subset of "sports shoes" such as "soccer shoes" and "running shoes" and asks the user to make a selection. If the user selects "running shoes", the program searches for subordinates of the running shoes in its next category The category of the set is then passed back to the user. If the user has selected running shoes. The next page will be information on the products and manufacturers of various running shoes, so that users can easily, quickly and accurately obtain product and manufacturer information under the guidance of information service providers. Industrial applications

 The method for constructing and using a search engine website of the present invention locates a search target as a limited target, that is, an entity through control of an information source, so that the search target is accurate and specific, and can accurately and quickly search for information required by network users. Therefore, a method is provided for solving the problem of a large amount of useless information, that is, "spam", which appears in the search process of a search engine website at present. The method for constructing and using the search engine website of the present invention can save the time of website users, improve the work efficiency of the search engine, and save the computer network resources of the information service provider.
