Well, on the one hand it is spam. On the other hand, we are pretty well ranked for a couple of key terms I have us in for Google and Yahoo!, so I'll let it go this time.

As a search engine it doesn't actually seem to be too bad.

Thanks for your notice. And God bless you all guys doing this site. Tell me though, if I may be inquisitive, what's in it for you? Are you also seeking to earn some revenues with ads. That's legitimate.

I like it. It seems fairly simple to use, and returned a good number of results on a search.

Thanks Brian for not deleting this topic, I am aware that this topic is "almost" spam.

Susma thank you for your blessing! At this moment I don't have any "money" plans for ReligionExplore, maybe in future I will go for google ads... With other words you can see this as kind of hobby.

I am glad to be of encouragement to anyone doing anything in the way of advancing knowledge. Of course there are people who fear that all knowledge is not all wholesome knowledge. That's true, in the sense that some people might and did and will use knowledge to destroy and kill instead of building and enhancing life. However, I believe that the history of mankind so far tells us that knowledge has been more to man's advantage than the opposite.

So I congratulate you for your website, and I have used it -- Very good.

This might be simplistic, but it is people like you who are bringing in the era of universal understanding and peace. And of course also Brian, owner/adminstrator of the present site.

More power to you!

Heh, simply entering a forum, then posting a link to another site, is usually taken as spamming.

However, if a post is relevant I see no harm in letting it stay.

I am deeply curious as to how your search engine works, though - does it rank by it's own algo, use it's own spiders, etc - or does it take results from a third party and filter them? In case you didn't know, SEO is my business occupation, so I do take some real interest in this issue. A considered reply may be a good way to showcase your engine.

Thanks again Susma for this beautiful words.
I am a little bit short on words because English is not my native language,thus everybody sorry for bad English.

And now a few technical details for Brian:
-I have own spider named "ReligionExplore.com" how originally
-our algo is based on few things:
+kind of pagerank (number of links)
+font size
+text position

Of course you can understand that I can't explain whole algo in public

Thanks!

Thanks!

I don't mind at all - I was particularly curious as to whether you actually used a third party search engine to filter your results from. Obviously, you do not. I am satisfied.

Don't apologize, pedja. Your English is better than some native speakers' I hear every day on my way to school. In fact, your apology makes me fondly recall the first time one of my favorite instructors apologized for his English. He told the class that he pretty much taught himself, and he's originally from the Ukraine and got his doctorate at Moscow University.

by the way, what is your native tongue? I kinda "collect" languages.
