Advantages: Quick results, easy to use

Disadvantages: Too much on the homepage! Slows down search results times

Yahoo is probably the worlds second best known search engine, behind the leader by miles, the search engine, google. Yahoo.co.uk is an english search engine which is very fast, reliable, and very easy and quick to use. This comes in handy when you want to do a quick search on something and don't want to be messing around scrolling through pages and pages of yahoo's search results.

So what is a search engine? A search engine is a website that sends out ''spiders'' to ''crawl'' other websites, these then provide the search engines with information like what that website is about, how many websites are linked to it, and loads more. Then, search engines like yahoo index these sites into their database and rank them up high for the search terms that site wants to rank high for, this depends on whether that website has worked hard on SEO (Search Engine Optomisation) however.

Yahoo.co.uk has been running for years now and is one of the worlds most successful search engines. The only bad thing about yahoo.co.uk is that there is too much on the hompage, news, pictures, videos etc. This slows down the search times and is probably why google is better than yahoo in popularity, because google doesn't have all that on it's hompage. 4 stars for yahoo.co.uk

Summary: Use yahoo if google is down, end of!
