Anzwers AU

The Anzwers search engine has a wide range of search options, and a number of different search types available. It also features a category directory, powered by LookSmart. Anzwers allows you to conduct a more focused search through the use of drop-down menus on the home page. And there are other search categories such as CarSearch, AuctionSearch, and ComputerSearch. The options for regular searches are numerous, including domain, date, media type, filters, Boolean search, and metaword search. The media type list is exhaustive, listing not only images and audio, but also Java, Shockwave, ActiveX, and Acrobat files--you can even enter a file extension to be searched for.

In our local search tests, Anzwers yielded good results, with only a few duplicate links included. We were pretty impressed when we didn't receive a single broken link in the top 20 results for four different searches. The results were displayed with URLs and date last updated, as well as relevance ratings in the form of percentages. Another helpful feature was a box that appears on every results page, presenting a number of news articles related to the search topic.

The results yielded from an Anzwers search were not the best we saw, but they were certainly right up there. Anzwers simply cannot be overlooked--it is one of the most up-to-date search engines in terms of database freshness.
