Yahoo! Search - Search Results

Search Results

Yahoo! Search indexed and cached the common HTML page formats, as well as several of the more popular file-types, such as PDF, Excel spreadsheets, PowerPoint, Word documents, RSS/XML and plain text files. For some of these supported file-types, Yahoo! Search provided cached links on their search results allowing for viewing of these file-types in standard HTML.

Using the Advanced Search interface or Preferences settings, Yahoo! Search allowed the customization of search results and enabling of certain settings such as: SafeSearch, Language Selection, Number of results, Domain restrictions, etc.

For a Basic and starter guide to Yahoo! Search, they also provided a Search Basics tutorial.

In 2005, Yahoo! began to provide links to previous versions of pages archived on the Wayback Machine.

In the first week of May 2008, Yahoo! launched a new search mash up called Yahoo! Glue, which is in beta testing.
