Hardware and software setup

Make the main Yandex search engine. System, power saving and hardware acceleration

Man - he's such a creature, constantly looking for something. In your head, on your friend's phone, in your closet, and finally on the Internet. If a new reader has come to your site, be sure that he will definitely want to look for something there.

It so happened that the built-in search from WordPress is still difficult to call ideal or even just good. Therefore, if your website is already well indexed by search engines, it's time to install Yandex search on it.

Go to Yandex. Search for the site" at the link http://site.yandex.ru and click there the big green button "Set search". If you do not yet have mail on Yandex, the system will offer to create it. Agree, without this you will not go far.

When a new window opens, fill in all the required fields in it and click next:

After choosing the color and size of the search bar, the next window called "Step 3" will open, where you will need to customize the appearance of the search results. Do you see the item "Display results"?

Set the color and style for your search results and click the Next button:

In the next window, you will see the code for placing the search string on your website. We do not close the window - this is very important! Or copy this html code into new document Notepad++ notepad.

The next step is very important! Do something wrong, nothing will work. You and I will need to create a new page on our WordPress site that will display all the search results. Go to WordPress Admin / Pages / Create New. Name the new page "Search" and make sure the link to this page had the form blog_name/search.

It is on this page that you will need to add the code that Yandex gave you. It looks like this:

We would like to remind you that you need to insert the code in html mode.

Search engines are improving every day, helping users to get the right content among huge layers of information. Unfortunately, in many cases, the search request cannot be satisfied due to the insufficient accuracy of the request itself. There are several secrets to setting up a search engine that will help weed out necessary information give more correct results.

In this article, we will consider some of the rules for generating a request in the Yandex search engine.

1. Default search system always returns the results of all forms of the input word. Putting the operator “!” in front of the search word in the line (without quotes), you will only get results with that word in the specified form.

The same result can be achieved by turning on advanced search and clicking the "Exactly as in the query" button.

2. If you put “!!” in front of the word, the system will select all forms of this word, excluding forms related to other parts of speech. For example, it will match all forms of the word "day" (day, afternoon, day), but will not show the word "child".

Context Refinement

With the help of special operators, it is specified obligatory presence and the position of the word in the search.

1. If you put the query in quotation marks ("), Yandex will look for exactly this position of words on web pages (ideal for finding quotes).

2. In the event that you are looking for a quote, but do not remember a certain word, put the * sign instead, and be sure to put the entire query in quotation marks.

3. Prefixing a word with a + sign indicates that the word must be found on the page. There can be several such words, and before each you need to put +. A word in a string that is not preceded by this sign is considered optional and the search engine will show results with and without this word.

4. The "&" operator helps to find documents in which the words marked by the operator occur in the same sentence. The icon must be placed between words.

5. The “-” (minus) operator is very useful. It excludes the marked word from the search, finding pages with only the remaining words in the string.

This operator can also exclude a group of words. Take a group of unwanted words in brackets and put a minus in front of them.

Setting up advanced search in Yandex

Some Yandex functions that refine your search are built into a convenient dialog form. Let's get to know her better.

1. Includes regional binding. You can find information for a specific locality.

2. In given line you can enter the site where you want to search.

3. Set the type of file to be found. This can be not only a web page, but also PDF, DOC, TXT, XLS and files to open in Open Office.

4. Enable search only for those documents that are written in the selected language.

5. You can filter the results by update date. For a more precise search, a line is offered in which you can enter the start and end date of the creation (update) of the document.

The start page in the browser is that tab, page or site on the Internet that opens first when you open your browser each time you start it, or when you press the Home button.

Do you have a desire or need to work specifically with the Yandex search engine? The start page, which can be installed by a user of absolutely any level, will always open first when loading the browser program.

To achieve this, you can use one of the following methods. Installing and securing Yandex as a homepage is quite easy, and in this article we will consider in detail the options for how to do this.

It all depends on which browser you use, because the applications and settings algorithms for each program are different. But I wonder why there is no start page at all in the Yandex Browser itself?

The most universal and easiest way is to type "www.ya.ru" in the address bar of your browser and wait for the web resource to load. In the upper left corner you can see the inscription "Make start".

Click on it and you're done. From this moment on, you begin your work with the site " www.yandex.ru"Or, to put it more simply, with the Yandex search engine.

Among the billions of pages of Internet content, only search engines can help the user of the network and help him in the search for this or that information. But only a few have at their disposal the knowledge of effective search in large search engines. Google systems and Yandex, because everywhere there are secrets and features.

O Google search engine I already wrote in the post. And today we’ll talk about the Yandex / Yandex search engine.

Yandex is a search engine that can, at your request, find the most appropriate web pages, news, pictures, encyclopedia articles or products in the Russian-speaking part of the Internet, answer questions about the weather or cultural events.

It is enough to type a question - just as you would ask a librarian or a know-it-all polymath. For instance, where do crayfish hibernate? or brightest star in the northern hemisphere

Yandex is just program, not a person. No need to endow him with omnipotence: they say, there is everything, just say it.

No matter how hard its developers try, but Artificial Intelligence so far no one on the planet has been able to create. Keep this fact in mind and don't try to ask Yandex "human questions". There is little sense from this - they will not understand.

Therefore, let's start with the most important subtleties of information search. The most important and basic here is the correct formulation of the query in the search engine line. The request should clearly describe what you need to find in the bowels of the Internet. For example, for one non-specific query "apple", we notice in the search engine results the website of a political party, and explanations of the term "apple", and various recipes, and many other pages (useful and not very useful). So in each of your requests, you must clearly answer the question: what is the object that you want to find information about on the issuance pages.

By the way, when typing a query, Yandex itself will offer you the most relevant options - search suggestions.

Now about the query: a very long query can both improve the accuracy of the search and worsen it.

It is better to search in Yandex for phrases,
consisting of two or three words.

After receiving the results, wait to click immediately. Take a look at the suggested links. Evaluate: is this exactly what you are looking for? If not, then just refine your query by adding new words.

If the subject of the query is specific, for example, regarding the “digestive system of the Spanish hedgehog”: o), then the query should consist of no more than 5-6 words (in most cases) When, regarding your long (several words) query, the search engine gives nonsense, then you need to reduce the number of words in the query in order to expand the search area, in the extreme case - it's better than not finding anything at all. Perhaps in this version you will not get 100% what you wanted, but alternatively approximate information is also good, for lack of a better one.

Advice: in the case of very incorrect issuance of your request, the method of selecting synonyms and rephrasing your request helps. Sometimes, this helps to find the information you need, because search engines are guided by the occurrence of keywords in the text of the page, and if you change the query, the output changes accordingly.

By the way, there are a couple of secrets here.

Firstly,

Search engines have interesting feature,
as "Advanced Search".

Advanced Yandex search is available at: http://yandex.ru/search/advanced

In the window of this most advanced search, you can manipulate the output a little by setting certain parameters, thereby narrowing the search area.

As you can see, in the Yandex advanced search window, we can set up a specific region, word arrangement, page language, page format, date added, and much more. Similar and intuitive clear interface the Google search engine also has advanced search

Second, know:

Yandex generates the result taking into account
geographic region in which
the user is located.

Most of the time it's really convenient. But what to do, for example, if we want to order the delivery of roses to a girlfriend who lives in Ufa, while we ourselves are in Murmansk? This mode will interfere.

You can search in Yandex without taking into account the region through the advanced search form -

The form is convenient to use for a one-time operation. If you are making a series of requests, then first set the region using the link in the upper right corner.

Thirdly, before searching in Yandex:

decide what exactly you want to find:
links to websites or the answer to a specific question.

With the first option, everything seems to be clear. We entered the words, got the result, then, we begin to methodically explore the proposed sites. Usual, but long.

The second option is not so obvious. By the way, many (the same 85%) do not know about him.

Look, Yandex visits per month almost all sites Runet, even not very well-known and rarely visited, and downloads all the pages somewhere to itself (on a dimensionless HDD). When you enter a query, then Yandex searches not on sites, but in its already downloaded pages, on that very dimensionless disk, or, as experts say, in the cache.

What does this mean? But the fact that

you can get an answer right away search results,
quickly and without bypassing sites
.

For example, we want to know the year of construction of the Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood. It is enough to enter the query "saved on blood" and the results will be:

"The Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood (architect A. Parland) was built on the orders of Alexander III and the decision of the Synod in 1907 on the site of the tragic death of Emperor Alexander II."

Answer received? Yes.

This is a simple example. For complex ones, knowledge of special commands and skill will be required. With the first I will help, the second will come with experience.

In order to effectively master the search on the Internet, you need to know at least the basic principles of the functioning of search engines.

So, Yandex commands for searching:

1. If needed search whole phrase, enclose it in quotes.(By default, the search words can be found anywhere on the page or not at all, and the quotation marks force Yandex to look for the exact phrase.)

Example: "Red roses"

2. If Search words must be in the same sentence and it is admitted that there may be other words between them, then insert an ampersand character.

Example: Red Rose

3. If you need to withdraw pages that must contain some word, then add it to the request and put before it plus sign.

Example: "red roses" + Ufa + prices

4. It is convenient to use the plus sign when you need to search taking into account the preposition, by default the preposition can be ignored.

Example: "red roses" + in Ufa

5. If you put before the word space and two tildes, then pages containing this word will be removed from the results.

Example: "red roses" + Ufa + prices ~ ~ Russia ~ ~ wholesale

6. If the word has synonyms or other words that are close in meaning, then they can be listed through the vertical line, while the entire enumeration is framed with parentheses.

Example: "red roses" + Ufa + (prices | cost) ~~ (Russia | wholesale | wholesale)

In this example, the result will include pages containing "ufa" and one of the words "price" or "cost", while none of them should contain: "russia", "wholesale", "wholesale".

The entire list can be viewed in the Yandex help or in the memo, a link to it is in the advanced search form.

What is morphology consideration in search?

I'll show you with an example...

In Russian, words can have different forms (cases, singular and plural, etc.). In whatever form the word is in the page text (even if it is different from the form of the word in the query), Yandex will find it. For example, if the query "go" is given, then the search will find documents containing the words "go", "goes", "walked", "walked", etc. The request “window” will return information containing the word “windows”, and the request “revoked” will return documents containing the word “revoked”.

Please note that when choosing word forms for search, Yandex distinguishes between parts of speech. For example, if you search for "computer" (noun), then pages with the words "computer" or "computers" will be found, but not "computer" (adjective).

Basic search queries.

Smartline is a unique technology developed by Yandex Corporation and applied in Yandex.Browser. A distinctive characteristic of this innovation is that through it you can both set search terms, or directly enter the domains of the sites you are interested in.

Moreover, with a smart line you will have access to:
