  6. The Visible Web • (aka The Surface Web or Indexable Web) • Is that portion of the Web that is indexable • By conventional search engines • (Google/Bing/Yahoo), • Using programs called spiders or Web crawlers.

  7. The Deep Web

  8. The Deep Web • (aka The Invisible Web, The hidden Web)

  9. The Deep Web • (aka The Invisible Web, The hidden Web) • The deep Web is the part of the Internet that is inaccessible to conventional search engine’s, and to most users.

  10. The Deep Web • (aka The Invisible Web, The hidden Web) • The deep Web is the part of the Internet that is inaccessible to conventional search engine’s, and to most users. • search engines have found ways to integrate deep Web content into their central search function.

  11. The Deep Web • (aka The Invisible Web, The hidden Web) • The deep Web is the part of the Internet that is inaccessible to conventional search engine’s, and to most users. • search engines have found ways to integrate deep Web content into their central search function. • Even a search engine as far-reaching as Google provides access to only a very small part of the deep Web.

  12. Beyond Google: Searching the Invisible Web

  13. Beyond Google: Searching the Invisible Web Google is a great search engine,

  14. Beyond Google: Searching the Invisible Web • Google is a great search engine, • But it misses a vast amount of information that is generally "invisible" to its Internet spiders and crawlers

  15. Beyond Google: Searching the Invisible Web • Google is a great search engine, • But it misses a vast amount of information that is generally "invisible" to its Internet spiders and crawlers • Most are tucked away in databases and dynamically-generated pages.

Beyond Google: Searching the Invisible Web • Google is a great search engine, • But it misses a vast amount of information that is generally "invisible" to its Internet spiders and crawlers • Most are tucked away in databases and dynamically-generated pages. • These hidden gems are often referred to by search analysts as the "invisible Web" or "deep Web."

Beyond Google: Searching the Invisible Web • Google is a great search engine, • But it misses a vast amount of information that is generally "invisible" to its Internet spiders and crawlers • Most are tucked away in databases and dynamically-generated pages. • These hidden gems are often referred to by search analysts as the "invisible Web" or "deep Web." • One way to mine the invisible Web is to use a specialized deep Web search engine or directory. • These allow you to directly search thousands of searchable databases and specialty search engines in one step.

  19. The slower but more useful method for mining the deep Web

  20. The slower but more useful method for mining the deep Web • is something you probably already do as part of your research.
