Hello, dear colleague! This article will focus on programs for searching tenders and auctions. This is a sore subject for most procurement participants, because... searching for procurement is a very important and at the same time labor-intensive stage of participation in tenders. The final result of your participation will depend on how effectively you search and find the tenders you need. Therefore, today we will talk about tools that will make your procurement search work more convenient and efficient. So let's get started...

Tender search software - a panacea for problems?

Many suppliers mistakenly believe that there is some kind of “miracle program” for searching for procurement that can save them from all problems. This program will provide information in batches about the best and most cost-effective purchases, and the participant will only have to click on any of them, study the conditions, prepare his application and take part in the auction. If you are still looking for such a program, then I can disappoint you; there are simply no universal programs that meet all user needs in nature. Any program (search engine) has both its pros and cons. And each procurement participant selects for himself exactly the program that best meets his needs and requirements. And in order to choose the right tool for yourself, you need to test more than one program.

Paid or free search programs

Today, the Internet offers many paid and free solutions for searching for tenders. And in order for you not to completely drown in all this variety of offers, I have posted a selection of such services in mine. If, to search for government and corporate procurement, you can get by with free services, then for a full-fledged search for commercial procurement, free services are absolutely useless. Those. If in your work you focus on commercial tenders, then you should seriously think about choosing a paid search engine. And we will talk about which of them are most preferable below.

How to find a person? Instructions for finding people.

We offer you instructions for searching for people via the Internet. There is a lot of useful information on the Internet, but you need to understand that you will not find an answer to every request. Searching for information requires time and some effort to sift through many databases. An official and unified database of all people using the Internet - No. Moreover, if a person does not appear on the Internet, then the chances of a search are even reduced.

Despite these disadvantages, the Internet allows you to access various data; you choose whether to search for free on your own or submit an application for a paid search.

Paid and free search for data about a person

Paid search allows you to find more accurate and complete information about a person. In this case, you most likely will not search and analyze information yourself, but will make your request online, and you will be informed of the search results.

The free search is carried out independently. For this purpose, existing databases provided on the Internet are used. Typically, this type of search is used to quickly find information about a person.

Search for missing relatives, classmates, friends.

In this case, you can get access to the necessary information for free. You can also place your request to find a person by filling out a simple form. Search region - worldwide.

"Who seeks will always find!"

Wikipedia

There are sites that not only provide us with information, but also allow us to supplement and edit it. Such projects are developing at tremendous speed and very quickly turn into huge Knowledge Bases, which are accessed daily by people looking for information on the Internet.

Wikipedia, based on Web 2.0 technology and having many language localizations, is rightfully considered one of the most ambitious projects. It has its own search mechanism, allowing you to easily and quickly find the necessary articles for future abstracts or scientific works.

Based on the Wikipedia program code, the so-called wiki engine was created, which allows other Internet projects to create their own Knowledge Bases, which allows you to replenish the World Wide Web with necessary and important information, filling the remaining niches of the information layer of the Internet.

How to quickly find what you need. Search engines.

Yandex, Rambler and Google

Even if you could not find the content you are interested in on numerous directory sites, do not despair. Numerous search engines are already rushing to help, fortunately there are a sufficient number of them. The main “Timurovites” of the Russian-language market are Yandex, Rambler And Google. Also, you can turn to such search engines as Aport, Western Yahoo! and so on. However, we will look specifically at the giants of the RuNet.

The main advantage of any search engine lies in the mechanism of its operation. Unlike directories, search engines, to add sites to their database, use a special spider robot, which quite successfully scans and indexes all publicly accessible sites on its Global Web.

Accuracy and simplicity of the request

Do not try to fully describe the topic of your essay or thesis to the search engine. Try to be concise and precise. Try to learn more about the text you are looking for, think about the search query, and, if necessary, find synonyms for keywords! The most important factor and key to our success is the correctness of the search query.

Search for a quote or exact title

What to do with searching for quotes or exact names of companies, musical groups, etc., if the search engine does not take into account very common words? Very simple. All you have to do is put the entire request in quotes, and the system will immediately perceive it as a single whole, without daring to change words or omit any words or symbols.

Exclusion from search

The search engine can not only be “forced” to search for the desired text, but also exclude some words from the query. If you do not want to be offered documents with its Culture when searching for an essay on the topic History of Ancient Egypt, simply enter in the Google search field: history of ancient Egypt - culture. In Yandex, instead of the “-” sign, a combination of “~~” signs is used. With this request, the word “culture” was completely excluded from the search criteria.

Case sensitive search

Search engines are case-insensitive; all uppercase characters are treated as lowercase by machines, except when using a special operand. This is the exclamation mark “!” before a word. This function is very useful for searching for villages or towns with common names, for example “village!Cats”. In this case, the search engine will not search for sites that talk about the village where cats live, but will search based on the capital letter.

Resource Directories

Directory of Internet sites or a directory of Internet resources or simply an Internet directory (English web directory) - a structured set of links to sites with a brief description of them. Sites within the directory are divided by topic, and within topics they can be ranked either by citation index (as in Yandex or Google directories), or by date added, or alphabetically, or by another parameter. This is one of the oldest Internet services.

In this case, you count one view. The number of people who can reach your article in this way depends on the frequency of the request.

The service pays 30 rubles for every thousand views. That is, when a user on the Internet wants to find information on a question posed and lands on a page with your publication, this is counted as 1 view of the article. For every 1000 such views you will receive 30 rubles.
