A brief history of searching... GeoDex.com is the result of an effort to sort websites all over the world in a manner that ranks websites by how popular they are in a given geographic region. Since the first website was created on March 15, 1985, the Internet has grown by leaps and bounds. The first search engine, WebCrawler, was released on April 20, 1994 and was designed to index (sort) websites entirely, which was eventually used by AOL, Lycos, InfoSeek, and OpenText. Back then, a short 15 years ago, the need for search engines were to gather a listing of websites that are published to the Internet. Gathered into vast databases, the website listings were bought up and displayed to visitors depending on the keywords that were being searched for. Over time, this technique has been improved, tweaked and modified to provide the world with a huge directory of websites that are relevant to what we are looking for. More or less like a computerized Yellow Pages book you may find in your kitchen drawer. In its mid-teenage years, the Internet search engine technologies available are at nearly every corner and besides all of our "favorites", basically provide us with the same results. Want to give it a try? Go to any of your favorite search engines and type in the keyword "cars" and they will all display cars.com and other similar websites in their search results as the top result. Today's
use of search engines, compared to 15 years ago... As each of us use the Internet more and more for our everyday needs, we likely use it searching on how to make our lives easier and more convenient. If you search "landscaping" into any major search engine, you will get a list of some website results and probably a list of phone numbers. What? The search engine is turning into a local phone book? It seems like it but there is one problem, what did we start the Internet in the first place? To build a wealth of information about services we are looking for, not for a phone book directory. GeoDex.com
enters the game... GeoDex, LLC was co-founded by Jeremiah Johnson with the mission set to provide Internet surfers with more relevant search results. With the basic ideal of when you type in "pizza" into the search, your most relevant pizza restaurant will be displayed first. GeoDex.com ranks search results through several patent-pending combinations made up of statistical data that is automatically generated in website logs, user's geographic areas, etc... Human-interaction driven, GeoDex's ranking system for websites is updated instantly every time a click is made within GeoDex's or a partner's platform, providing the first ever-growing intelligent and self-learning website ranking system globally spread in dynamic geographically relevant format.
