Let's say I enter range of IP's for Cyprus and Greece only

Wouldn't that exclude all Cyprus websites that are hosted abroad?

I would be willing to give it a shot!!

But with that said, I don't think Cyprus is the most internet proficient country. Basically any time I try and look for something on google (in relation to Cyprus) I will get the following results:

1) Cheap flights to Cyprus
2) Cheap accomodation in Cyprus
3) Cheap Car rentals in Cyprus
4) Desperate men of Cyprus looking for a good time

Ontop of that, 99% of the links are either dead or out-of date.

Personally I think a setup like Yahoo.com.au would be good (where this includes Aus & NZ). So why not include CY in Google.GR ??

Web Crawler has many options for spidering the web. Range of IP's, unique IP's, list of sites, ftp servers, secure servers etc. Also, indexing file type (txt, htm, html, php, asp, pdf, swf etc. You can select one or all the options.

So it wouldn't. This sites will be on the list to spider.

Additionally, settings for spam pages, gateway pages, scripts designed to cheat Crawler etc. Crawler can recognize spam, and knows what to do with found spam page (black lists of IP's, whole web servers, web sites...). Crawler is the mind of engine. He reads how many times you repeated keyword within the size of text, is your text the same color as page background, link loops etc.

Finally, SE Server is not updated so often. On the other hand, Crawler is being updated very often. Like Anti virus software.

I voted NO, but after reading I actually wish i voted yes. Cyprus needs a "smart" search engine of it's own. I would deifinatley use it for Cyprus related serches.

I would give it a try too :wink:

When will it be ready?

Should Cyprus have real Search Engine? Like Yahoo?

We need powerful Cypriot (Hellenic) Search Engine?
