About Results

The search results found using Webfetch are compiled via an innovative metasearch technology which queries many leading search engines at once and delivers outstanding results in one click.

The results include paid-for as well as free listings. All paid-for results are labelled "sponsored", either before or after the web address of the paid-for search result.

The technology applied by Webfetch is designed to provide the best possible combination of paid-for and free results for each search query. Read more details below.

Different Engines, Different Results
Web Searchers Not Always Finding What They're Looking for Online. A research study conducted by our US site Dogpile.com in collaboration with researchers from the University of Pittsburgh and Pennsylvania State University.

Webfetch combines the search results from Bing With Google and Yahoo!
Now consumers can efficiently find more of the Web's most relevant search results in one place.

First Page Results from Top Four Engines Don't Have Much in Common.
There is a common belief by Web searchers that all search engines are the same. But a recent research study shows that only 1.1% of the first page results across the four leading engines are identical.1

These findings underscore the importance of searching the Web with multiple engines to find more top ranked results. Whether they know it or not, many people are already metasearching. comScore shows that people use an average of 2.8 engines per month for their searches.2

Webfetch is simply the easiest way to find the best results from the leading search engines.

Webfetch users are More Successful at Finding What They're Looking For
According to other research, just over half of all Web searches at the top four engines result in clicks on the first results page. comScore Media Metrix found that between 31% - 56% of all first page searches on the top search engines are successful, compared to 63% at our US site, Dogpile.com.3

This is further proof that by searching all the leading engines at once, sites such as Dogpile.com and Webfetch which use similar search technologies, give users a better chance of finding what they're looking for.

Webfetch - A Better Way to Search
