Human Categorization
Human Categorization, as the name suggests, is categorization of websites by human
beings. Search Engine employees categorize different websites into regional listings.
Websites that are more relevant to a specific country are listed in that edition of the
Search Engine. Hence, for a French edition a search would mainly list documents from
France. This eliminates the problem mentioned above. The only caveat being that the
whole process is manual.
Directories such as Yahoo, LookSmart, and Open Directory make use of this process.
