TYPES OF PORTALS • There are different types of web portals, but they each do the same thing: Expose new sites to users based on what the user wants. • Portals: ▫ ▫ ▫ Search Engines Hub Sites Web Directories Webrings and Blog Networks Social Networks

Search Engines • Search engines act as one of the most popular types of web portals. • An Internet user has to search for a certain topic, issue or problem, and potentially millions of pages show up as a result of the search query. • The user then clicks on the link found, and a new site is discovered. • New sites can show up every day.

Hub Sites • Several websites on the Internet act as hubs online. • Sites such as Live, Yahoo and Google offer everything from search engines to email accounts to news information. • Because these hub sites regulate so much information, users can then find a new website, visit the site and determine if the website is good match for their needs.

Example…. .

Web Directories • Unlike search engines and hub sites, a web directory is a database of sites that pertain to a certain topic, such as types of products, a theory or a subject in school. • Methods on how a website can get into the directory vary from directory to directory, but typically, either a user recommends a particular site for the directory, or the website itself applies to the directory and awaits approval or rejection.

Example…. .

Webrings and Blog Networks • In the earlier days of networks, websites would link together and form webrings or a group of sites that banded together. • This is similar to the way a directory works, but a webring is more decentralized and power lies in the group of sites, rather then an overseer of the directory. • Webrings usually have a moderator who decides which pages to include in the web ring. After approval, webmasters add their pages to the ring by 'linking in' to the ring.

Social Networks • Example such as Myspace and Facebook. • Both websites allow users to share certain articles, websites videos and photos with their friends. • They have made these and other social networks into web portals of their own, providing access to websites that other friends approve of or are interested in.
