The Semantics of Search

October 17, 2013 / Melody Smith / Comments Off on The Semantics of Search

Search has been morphing with regard to how you approach it, use it, and refer to it for some time now. Enter search engine optimization efforts and the focus or goal of search changed. Then came semantic search, which has changed the game even more. This interesting topic came from Forbes in their article, “Search Is Dead… Long Live Search!”

The transition into semantic search marks the shift from search results based on probability to results based on actions, as well as an understanding of natural language.

Semantic technology requires a special knowledge of terminology and coding to reduce errors. Access Innovations, developer of the M.A.I. machine-assisted indexing system and specializing in complex coding, tagging, and indexing, provides a range of services that deliver tag integrity.
