why are Google and Bing the only two major search engines surviving?
Massively high technical barrier to entry, and in Google's case, bullying the little guy with impunity.
- lostmsu 4y agoThe technical side should have become easier since the inception of Google: you can probably beef up a single machine to index the entirety of relevant internet.
- richardsocher 4y agonah, it costs A LOT of money to build an up-to-date index of the web. we're doing it slowly on you.com - one sources/url/app at a time.
- lostmsu 4y agoWhere does your cost come from mostly?
- richardsocher 4y agopeople, machines, crawling, storage, etc.
