Browse Faster: Topic Clustering

Turbo10 Topics lists the top 10 related topic clusters for every search.

It helps you browse faster because you can 'home in' quickly on the most relevant topic.


For example, if you search on 'salsa', Turbo10's algorithm identifies 'dancing' and 'recipes' as two distinct topics.

Browse Faster: Dynamic Relevance Ranking

Turbo10 returns results as quick as possible. We respond as soon as the quickest engine so you don't have to wait for slow engines.

But sometimes slow engines have more relevant results - so we dynamically re-shuffle the results in your browser.

This means:
  • The most relevant results get to the top.
  • We also remove any repeats.
  • And we give slow engines a chance to answer your query.
  • You can see the results loading in the Search-o-Meter.

Browse Faster: Search-o-Meter

Turbo10 takes the scrollbar out of searching so you can browse faster. The Search-o-Meter tool enables you to:

* Quickly move back and forth through the results using the arrow buttons
* See the progress of results loading into your browser.
* See how many result pages we have found for your search.
* Jump instantly to any result page by clicking on a pink bar.
