Deep Web Wiki is a volunteer-led search organization that maintains a database containing detailed descriptions of so-called "Deep Web" sites that are either ignored or poorly indexed by the major search engines; it is estimated that ~95 to 99% of Web-accessible content cannot be reached using conventional web crawling methods. The Deep Web Wiki also contains other useful information sites that often are not popular enough to rank on the first few pages of search engine's results--despite their value.The Deep Web Wiki depends on the efforts of Web users to build the wiki and improve the quality and accuracy of site descriptions. Contributions to the index can be made either anonymously or by signing up for a free membership that allows members to track their contributions and watch pages of interest.

invisible web, hidden web, and deep web all refer to the same thing: a massive storehouse of online data that the search engines don't capture. That's because terabytes of information are buried in databases and other research resources. Searchable and accessible online but often ignored by conventional search engines, these resources exist by the thousands. Known in research circles as the invisible, deep, or hidden Web, this buried content is an estimated 500 times larger than the surface Web, which is estimated at over four billion pages. This mass of information represents a potent research resource, no matter what your discipline or interest. Below are some tools to help you mine it. Students and serious researchers may also find our collections of web directories and scholarly and academic research tools and strategies useful.

A web search engine is designed to search for information on the World Wide Web and FTP servers. The search results are generally presented in a list of results and are often called hits. The information may consist of web pages, images, information and other types of files. Some search engines also mine data available in databases or open directories. Unlike Web directories, which are maintained by human editors, search engines operate algorithmically or are a mixture of algorithmic and human input.

Searchwiki or Swicki's purpose is to bridge the gap between searchers and relevant results. As the web grows and evolves, web search needs to grow and evolve too. Searchwiki technology improves on existing general web search by enabling vertical, community site and web searches to be initiated from any website. A searchwiki's strength is in its community appeal and dynamic social search cloud. As such, collaboration between groups of people with similar interests using a Searchwiki will quickly produce much more relevant and tailored results for a common group than a generic search engine would.
