Sources are very thin, mostly being tangential mentions or PR. No other sourcing found. Last AFD was in 2007 and kept mostly through invalid arguments like WP:ITSNOTABLE. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 16:06, 1 April 2022 (UTC)
This is a 393-word review of Search Engine Watch. The review notes: "Search Engine Watch was launched in June 1997, acquired by Mecklermedia later that year (though Sullivan retains all editorial control), and has gained acclaim as an important resource for Web site developers and Internet searchers--two categories in which many librarians currently find themselves. The bulk of the information is contained in four broad sections: Webmaster's Guide to Search Engines; Search Engine Facts and Fun; Search Engine Status Reports; and Search Engine Resources. A fifth section, The Search Engine Report, is also offered as a free, monthly e-newsletter, which covers developments with search engines and alerts subscribers to any changes to the Web site."
The review further notes: "The immediate audience for Search Engine Watch--serious searchers and Webmasters--may not include all library patrons; however, it is an invaluable tool for librarians trying to keep up with the rapid development and fluctuation of Internet search tools."
This is a 626-word review of Search Engine Watch. The review notes: "Search Engine Watch (http://searchenginewatch.com) is the first place to go for organized, up-to-date information on WWW search engines. Coverage is extensive and the site appears to be updated frequently by its sponsor Danny Sullivan."
The review further notes: "I had a few quibbles with Sullivan's explanations of search engine technology, and the site could use the services of a good proofreader or at least a spellchecker, but this failing doesn't interfere with the inherent value of the information. Search Engine Watch is a new and promising collection of up-to-date information on any aspect of WWW search engines, important for Web developers and searchers. I've bookmarked it."
This is a 330-word review of Search Engine Watch. The review notes: "Danny Sullivan's Search Engine Watch is part of the collection of Web sites under the Internet.com umbrella. The site's main attractions are a Webmaster's Guide to Search Engines, Search Engine Facts and Fun, Search Engine Status Reports, and Search Engine Resources. Highlighting Sullivan's commentary is a generous supply of tables, screen shots, bar charts, and graphs."
