Why Can't I Just Use a Free Search Engine like Google?
You can, but you risk missing “deep web” documents that hold the most value for your internal users or external clients. Professional researchers call these items “Gold Nuggets” and know from years of experience that Google, and the other popular search engines, do a poor job delivering them. So, using Google:
- You'll waste hour upon hour manually entering multiple search phrases to try and get broad enough coverage for your topics without being inundated with results.
- Frustration and unproductive time will be the name of the game. After reviewing hundreds or even thousands of search results and not finding what you are looking for, you'll probably just give up with little or nothing to show for your efforts.
