This UI design is critical to search engine is just nonsense. All that matters in search engine is the result. You can have the crappiest interface and the best result, you will become billionaire. Simple as that. Design in search engine doesn't matter at all. All that matters is the result.
- arockwell 18y agoDesign matters because I need to be able to interpret the search engines results as quickly as possible. Google's lightweight design really shines because it loads instantly and I can usually look through the result page very quickly and figure out which link is the most relevant to my query and click on it. However, that's not always true, and I sometimes have to click on 3 or 4 links to figure out if I need to refine my search or not. If someone found a better way to organize the search results, so that I can determine which ones are relevant faster that would be a big win. I do agree with you that the quality of the search results are a lot more important though, but presentation definitely does matter.
