Google is Killing its Older Search Engines
Google has shut down a number of its legacy search engines this past week, and they’re not coming back.
Back in its early years Google launched a number of specialized search engines. They were designed to help users find content faster by searching just a small part of the web. For example, google.com/unclesam only returned results from US government websites.
Times have changed, and Google no longer believes those specialized search engines are worth maintaining. A total of 6 different pages have been killed because Google believes that you can get just as good of a result by working through Google.com.
Well, not everyone agrees.
