Dynamic Chiropractic Staff

With approximately 30 million web site pages on the Internet, the volume of material accessible on any given subject is dramatically dependant on one's choice of a "search engine."

To illustrate this point, we did an Internet search for "chiropractic" using a number of the more popular search engines:

Alta Vista 44,800
Excite 15,864
Galaxy 93
HotBot 22,638
Infoseek 11,097
Lycos 4,481
Magellan 1,226
MetaCrawler 49
WebCrawler 1,366
Yahoo 178

Note: WebCrawler is the standard search engine for America Online. All of the other search engines are pre-installed with Netscape Navigator.
