Metasearch engine

Term · Computing and IT · MLC-T-CMP-001501

A search tool that sends user queries to several other search engines and then aggregates the results into a single list. It does not maintain its own index of web pages but rather relies on the indices of other search providers. This can offer a broader view of search results than a single engine.
