Any better way than the local search engines!!!

[unmik]

Hi, I am engaged in a KPO and need to dig out the web for various projects that my clients offer. I know that we do have options of search engines but does anyone know anything better than a search engine like may be any software that can do some advanced searching rather than the basic search. I think that there are many outside there that may be searching for such a thing.

Thanks in advance!!!

What does KPO mean?

KPO = Knowledge Process Outsourcing

Well I have met lots of them in past. They need to dig up the data and research the web.

What I tell everytime to the clients is that it is going to cost them a private crawler and a specially designed database according to their needs.

The costs involved in this are much higher but it is beneficial in long run.

If you are looking for something like this then I think there is no ready made software out there that can do it. Because the data format on the web is not as it has to be. So the crawler is needed and also some algos to classify it in correct categories. Still 10% manual correction is needed in the final output.

Thanks.
