Raging Search is AltaVista's attempt to challenge the increasingly popular Google search engine. Google's demographics are composed of more sophisticated Web users. Search results on Raging Search are presented faster and with more relevance than those on its primary engine, the company says on its Web site. In addition, the pages that display the search results are
free of banner advertising. Instead, the site will generate revenues through links on the bottom of each page that AltaVista will sell to online merchants. The launch of Raging Search comes as AltaVista
plans a second attempt at taking its company public. It postponed its initial public offering last month because of poor market conditions for Internet stocks." Google is a start-up search engine
backed by some of Silicon Valley's most influential venture capitalists, including Sequoia Capital and Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers. Its technology ranks results based on the popularity of the site. A site's popularity is measured by how many other sites link to it.
