Conducting Simple Searches of the Web

Authors & Contributors

Ask Jeeves is a leading alternative search site, located on the Web at http://www.askjeeves.com.

Ask Jeeves asks you to phrase your search in the form of a question. Then it presents a list of questions that are similar or identical to your question and asks you to select the one that most closely resembles your question. If you select one of the suggested questions, you will be taken to a page created by the Ask Jeeves staff or directly to a Web site that Ask Jeeves judges relevant to your question. If Ask Jeeves can't answer your question, you can use its online help to refine your question.
