Blacklisted search terms

Ben Johnson

8/28/2008 8:42:00 PM

I'm building somewhat of a search engine and have been trying to find a
list of blacklisted search terms. Words that I can exclude from the
search, such as "and", "the", "a", etc. I've been looking forever and
can't find anything, any idea where I can find something useful for
this?

Thanks for your help!

Hi Ben,

Try : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... - there's a link at the
bottom for some other sites that purport to provide 'stop-words' in
various languages...

Cheers !

Try googling for "stopwords", that's what they're called.
