A taxonomy of web search

Abstract:
Classic IR (information retrieval) is inherently predicated on users searching for information, the so-
called information need. But the need behind a web search is often not informational -- it might be
navigational (give me the url of the site I want to reach) or transactional (show me sites where I can
perform a certain transaction, e.g. shop, download a file, or find a map). We explore this taxonomy
of web searches and discuss how global search engines evolved to deal with web-specific needs.
1 Introduction
A central tenet of classical information retrieval is that the user is driven by an information need.
Schneiderman, Byrd, and Croft [SBC97] define information need as the perceived need for
information that leads to someone using an information retrieval system in the first place. But the
intent behind a web search is often not informational -- it might be navigational (show me the url of
the site I want to reach) or transactional (show me sites where I can perform a certain transaction,
e.g., shop, download a file, or find a map). In fact as we show later, informational queries constitute
less than 50% of web searches.
The main aim of this paper is to point out this difference and introduce and analyze a taxonomy of
web searches. Secondly, we show how search engines evolved to deal with these web-specific needs.
The remainder of the paper is organized as follows: in section 2 we discuss the classic model for
information retrieval; section 3 introduces a taxonomy of web searches; section 4 presents some
statistics extracted from AltaVista surveys and logs regarding the prevalence of various types of
searches; section 5 analyzes the evolution of search engines in light of this taxonomy; section 6
discusses some related work; finally, section 7 draws certain conclusions and
