                      The Internet offers information on a wide range of topics. Search engines help
                      users find specific information by scanning numerous web pages on the World

                      Wide  Web.  A  search engine is  a software  tool designed to locate particular
                      information based on user queries. Google is the most popular search engine, with
                      others such as Bing and Yahoo also available. Users enter relevant keywords into

                      the search engine, which then returns a list of websites related to the search terms.
                      Here are some popular search engines:

                      ✶   Google: It was launched in September 1998 by Larry Page and
                         Sergey Brin  at  Stanford  University. The company formally

                         launched Google Search in 1998. Over time, Google introduced
                         features  such as autocomplete,  image search  and  personalised
                         results, making it highly efficient and user-friendly.

                                      ✶   Yahoo: It began in 1995 as a directory-based service created by

                                         Jerry Yang and David Filo. In its early years, it was one of the
                                         most popular ways to navigate the Internet. Later, it integrated
                                         search partnerships with other companies like Inktomi, Google

                      and Bing. Yahoo! combined search with a portal offering news, e-mail and other
                      services, but it eventually lost dominance to Google.
