Advanced Internet
Search
INFORMATION LITERACY CERTIFICATE
What we will cover today
How Google works and how that impacts search
Tricks, tips, and new ways of thinking about finding information for
advertising online
Finding statistics
How does Internet
search work?
It starts with understanding the internet
It’s big…
It’s diverse…
It’s dynamic.
Three parts of a search engine
Major Points
Spiders explore the internet through links
Spiders build lists of words and where the words are found on
websites
Search engines look through the index created by the spiders, not
the Internet
What does this mean
for your search?
An Algorithmic Culture
Research has shown that many people equate relevancy in
search rankings with reliability.5
Google-conditioned expectation of simple search
Not everything is findable by search engines
The pages you see are ranked by an algorithm.
Interested parties will always try to beat the system
Man against Machine
NEW WAYS OF THINKING ABOUT INTERNET SEARCH
Know when Googling is good…
and when it is bad.

Editor's Notes

  1. For Google, there are over 200 factors in the ranking algorithm3 Includes a judgement of quality according to PageRank, or the number of links to a website Includes personalization, or results tailored to your previous search behaviors Filter bubbles
  2. Search Engine Optimization (SEO) Tampers with the objectivity of search results I'm hardly qualified to dash off authoritative articles on the theological bona fides of African critters. But one recent evening, I made $15 for writing tips on hard-disc data recovery, another $15 for telling people how to repair burnt carpet and $7.50 for teasing out the answer to that most pressing of questions: Is a giraffe sacred? Dan Fletcher, Working for Demand Media: The Web's Biggest, Scariest Content Machine
  3. Ready reference versus complex information problems Alternate search engines Specific types of information US vs. international Info Google isn’t designed to find or prefer
  4. Use Evernote or other apps to track useful sources
  5. Find other words by adding glossary to your search Another term also produces other words Geography – slang to skew to a certain place Activity – terminology used by that community of participants Expertise – high and low language, example heart attack versus myocardial infarction Outcome – add words typically used in the result you want Remove words – subtract words from what you are seeing in your results that you don’t want
  6. Be aware of your own confirmation bias in your search terms. People underestimate the value of what they do not know and overestimate the value of what they do know.7
  7. New Google search results Twitter hashtag monitoring Media monitoring
  8. Break down into three groups one for each technique Practice – number of people with diabetes now compared to the past for different age ranges
  9. Explore each thing using Census Reporter
  10. Ask how we might deal with this?
