Answer 8

--->Yahoo! Search is a web search engine, owned by Yahoo!. Originally, "Yahoo! Search" merely referred to an interface, Yahoo! provided, which would pass on queries to another search engine "behind the scenes" (most recently Google), and display them to the user, under the Yahoo! brand. Originally, none of the actual web crawling and storage/retrieval of data was done by Yahoo! itself.

Seeking to provide its own search engine results, Yahoo! acquired other companies with their own search engines. In 2002, it bought Inktomi, a "behind the scenes" search engine, whose results are shown on other companies' web sites. In 2003, it bought Overture Services, Inc., which owned the AlltheWeb and AltaVista search engines. Initially, even though it owned multiple search engines, it didn't use them on the main Yahoo.com web site, but kept using Google's search engine for its results.

However, starting in 2004, Yahoo! Search became an original web crawler-based search engine, with a reinvented crawler called Yahoo! Slurp. Yahoo! Search combined the capabilities of search engine companies it had acquired, with its existing research, and put them into a single search engine. Its new search engine results were included in all of Yahoo!'s sites that had a web search function. It also started to sell its search engine results to other companies, to show on their web sites. Its relationship with Google was terminated at that time, with the former partners becoming each other's main competitors.

--->Google is a search engine owned by Google, Inc. whose mission statement is to "organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful". The largest search engine on the web, Google receives over 200 million queries each day through its various services.
At its start in 1998, Google claimed to index 25 million web pages.[1] By June 2005, this number had grown to 8 billion pages, as well as 17 million images, 1 billion Usenet messages, 6,600 print catalogs, and 4,500 news sources. Recently, Google claimed to index over 25 billion web pages and 1.3 billion images.[citation needed] After a controversy involving Yahoo's index size claims in summer of 2005, the number of indexed pages was removed from the Google home page.
