Making Search Work
Implementing Web, Intranet and Enterprise Search

In addition to providing critical guidance for anyone charged with implementing an organization’s internal search strategy, the book features a glossary, suggestions for further reading, and an annotated listing of 40 firms providing Web, intranet, and enterprise search solutions.

Coverage includes:

  • How search works
  • The search business
  • Making a business case for search
  • Evaluating and selecting a search engine
  • Optimizing search performance
  • Search usability
  • Desktop search
  • Implementing Web search
  • Implementing intranet search
  • Enterprise search

  • Future directions for search

Whether you are an enterprise knowledge manager, information professional, Web site owner, e-commerce director, or anyone responsible for implementing your organization’s internal search strategy, this book will give you essential guidance not available from any other source.

Making Search Work tells you in no uncertain terms how to evaluate, buy, and implement enterprise search products. Use it as a handbook throughout your process to get the most value out of search.”
