Abstract

Along with general search engines which search the entire web, vertical search engines that are rather focused on specific domains of search have also gained in popularity in web search. In our case we are focused on domain of online shopping. We treat main processes of search engines which include crawling, indexing and query processing. Each process is developed based on general search engines and adapted to tackle the problems of the specified domain. Specifically, a search result ranking algorithm called Warehouse, which may be adapted to rank results of any specific domain, is introduced.
