Is Google a reliable document search engine?
- by Miriam Schwab
I have a site with PDFs and Word documents that I know have been indexed by Google because they appear in search results with filetype:pdf (or doc), and if I search for some very specific terms with quotation marks, they appear as well. But they don't appear for general search terms that do exist in the documents.
Is Google a reliable document search engine? If not, are there other options for managing many documents and making them searchable to users?
