What is Invisible Web?

If you use simply general (as opposed to specialist) search engines to conduct research and intelligence projects on the web, you will be missing out on hundreds of thousands of valuable sources….

• Why?
  This is because search engines such as Google, MSN or Yahoo! Search and directories such as Yahoo! Directory only give you access to a small part (less than 10%) of the web, the Visible Web. The technology of these conventional search engines does not provide a gateway into a vast area of the web, the Invisible web, much larger than the Visible Web.
• What is Invisible Web (deep web)?
  Let us think of Antarctic expeditions where experts wish to take ice samples from icebergs: if they focus only on the part above the surface they are failing to take advantage of the huge mass beneath the surface, on average 50 times larger.
  It’s the same with the web! If you remain within the confines of the Visible Web for your intelligence, you are ignoring an invisible area representing 500 times the volume and containing hundreds of thousands of high value resources!
  Digimind Services presents 3 visuals to help you understand the invisible web, an indispensable source for information research and internet monitoring.
