Search millions of conversations from social networks, blogs and other social media channels with BackType.com. You’ll also see what’s currently popular and being talked about on the web. This is not the only search engine for social media websites, but one more useful tool when it comes to tracking trends and brands.

Search for keywords inside Twitter bios is made simple with the search feature on TweepSearch’s website. Native Twitter search covers lots of types of searches already, but if you’re looking for specific keywords within Twitter accounts’ bios, it’s impossible to get clear results. For example, try a Twitter search for ‘webdesigner’ and you’ll see that unless you use the keyword ‘webdesigner’ as your actual name, you won’t come up in the search results at all. TweepSearch lets you search within the bios of the followers of a specific user, or all the bios on Twitter in general.

Track your website’s keywords throughout the social media world with SamePoint. It pulls up results from user generated content such as blogs, Twitter, StumbleUpon, Wikipedia, Simpy, Digg, Delicious, YouTube, Facebook and other sites. Use this site to see what people are publishing in real-time and what’s trending. What makes this different from simply going to the usual search engines for results, is that these results are in real time. Even though the major search engines are also adding real time results, their main results still come from data bases. SamePoints’ results are not just useful for marketers, but also for finding new sites for back links and to track what people are saying about your brand.

If certain parts of your site aren’t spiderable, search engines can’t reach your pages. If you want to check if your pages are accessible to search engines, use a tool like
WebConfs’ spider simulator. Flash based content, content generated through javascript, content displayed as images etc may not be visible to search engines. This tool simulates a search engine by displaying the contents of a webpage exactly how a search engine would see it. It also displays the hyperlinks that will be followed (crawled) by a Search Engine when it visits the particular webpage.

Try a different way of searching with Clusty. It displays search results individually, or grouped by ‘clusters’, search engines or domains.

Based on Google search results of course, this Google tool shows you relevant keyword ideas and their Adwords competition for your website.

If you need to know how long it takes to get to the Neptune at the speed of light, visit WolframAlpha to get your answer. WolframAlpha doesn’t search web pages for answers, but computes the results to your customized questions based on human knowledge recorded in scientific resources, encyclopedias, government resources and more. As opposed to Google’s mission to ‘organize the world’s information’, WolframAlpha attempts to ‘make it possible to compute whatever can be computed.’
