Loading ...Personalisation is an important area for consideration for the search engines as they believe that personalising their search services will enable them to provide their users with more relevant and pleasing results and this will result in a higher level of user satisfaction and loyalty. Google is now personalising all of its search results depending on the user that has carried out the search query and is hoping that this new technique is going to prove highly successful.
A more personalised search experience is one where the search engine provides the user with search results that they have identified as likely of significance and relevancy to that user. Every internet user is different and searches for different things and visits different websites when online and Google is trying to provide these different users with different search results depending on who they are. Google can do this by collecting information from previous user history. The search engines can store information on the searches a user carries out and the websites that they visit most often. This means that the search engines can recognise the type of site a user may be interested in or that they obviously like and will rank this type of site highly when an appropriate search query is made by them.
Google is now automatically collecting and storing this kind of data so that it can provide a personalised search service for as many of its users as possible. However, there are many internet users that do not like the idea of companies such as Google storing information about their user behaviour. Others having records of what you have been searching for and the websites you have been visiting can be viewed as an infringement on your privacy and it is likely that many Google users will feel this way. For users that do not want Google to store detailed information about their searches, there is the opportunity for them to opt out of this personalised service. The choice will be up to the Google users themselves and so will come down to whether they believe more personalised search results are worth Google storing information about their online activities.
If websites can achieve high rankings in the Google search results then they will be more likely to be clicked on by Google searchers and therefore more likely to become one of their favourite and most visited websites too. This will also mean that in the future, when a search is carried out by the same user, this website will once again be highly likely to be ranked in a top position in the results.
Being ranked highly in the Google search results is beneficial for businesses in many ways and with the dominance of Google in search, this is likely to increase in the future too.
