I made my first query on Clueray and waited for more than 20 seconds for the results – luckily I was warned that it might be slow – but it was a while worth waiting. Clueray challenges the way documents are served on the SERP by looking at the ‘document intent’:
One of the key insights leading to the development of Clueray’s unique intent-driven approach was to recognize that all of these different document types can be organized by intent: the intent to inform, the intent to facilitate a transaction, the intent to that serve as a “launching point” for exploring related topics, etc. Interestingly, these document intents map very nicely onto the types of searches people do which have been identified by researchers.
This means that you can filter your results according to your specific needs – and by the looks of the search results, the SERP has a range of additional features – one of which is a couple of new ways to display an the results.

Go play with the thing and tell me what you think ![]()
(In return I’ll omit a rant about Clueray totally screwing up their blog…)
…and if you are in a hurry – you can just take a look at Cluerays own break down of their SERP:

I made a search for the term “reklamebureau” (Advertising Agency in English) and I must say, that I kinda liked the results, I was given by Clueray
What at great search engine that is!
