abrave spider

REAL-TIME UK DIRECTORY POWER™

The Abrave Directory is a search engine and directory powered by abrave spider, a robot/search spider/web crawler program owned by Gallent Limited in association with Gallant Limited. The abrave spider uses in-house designed technology that is unique to robot technology.

The abrave spider makes strategic decisions when it crawls the web in a way unlike any other robot. Live decisions are made about what the content of the page is and whether it is suitable to save or to search other pages from that site. This helps keep our vast database free of thousands of pages that can best be described as ‘irrelevant content’ and of no importance to you, the search engine user. Because of this, the results gathered by the abrave spider are instantly updated in the index and are made instantly available on our sites.

We have also implemented a confidence scale where we openly display at the top of each internet search how confident we are that the results we are showing will fulfil exactly what you are searching for. The confidence scale is as follows:

= 'Low' confidence.
= 'Medium' confidence.
= 'High' confidence.

Even with a 'Medium' confidence scale for the majority of times the results shown will still be what you are searching for and often with a 'Low' confidence scale rating too but by implementing this scale we are bringing an honesty to search engines that has not been seen before. We are taking the arrogance out of the search industry by openly displaying how confident we are that the results being displayed for any given search will match what you are searching for. It should be noted that the abrave spiders that perform the indexing for abrave.co.uk, only index UK based websites and therefore the confidence scale for results related to other countries will always be low.

At present, in order for a page to be listed on abrave.co.uk, for the majority of cases that page needs to obtain a Point Rank™ score of at least 25 points and in some instances a score of at least 50 is required. Abrave is a showcase site for demonstrating the possibilities for the Abrave Spider and Search Engine and for that reason some queries may not be fulfilled. The possibilities for this technology are limited only to the power of the platform it operates on. Abrave actually needs relatively minimal hardware as the Abrave Spiders and the website are currently housed on a single server.

We have created the technology that could potentially allow any company in the world to start a search engine with our help because we are able to tailor our robot technology to index the types of sites that are specific to any search engine requirements or provide a robot crawler solution that will search global sites for all domain extensions. This is something that we are considering offering in the future to all companies.

The abrave spider global alpha release was conducted in 2007. A UK beta release was launched in September 2009 and the RC version was released in October 2010 in the form of a search engine and directory on abrave.co.uk so be sure to Bookmark us.
