Show HN: Search engine for finding the best of anything

31 点作者 switchstance将近 3 年前
Bestlist is a search engine that is focused solely on helping users discover the best of anything.<p>All of our results are non-biased, non-paid, and are dynamically generated via our search algorithm. It’s not perfect, but we’re working extremely hard and are determined to make it ubiquitous in the lives of the everyday internet user.<p>Other Features<p>Voting If you’re feeling strongly about a search results, you can up or downvote the listing to voice your opinion. When you vote, you’ll be asked to state why you voted. This gives other users better insights into the listing.<p>Collections With collections you can easily save and keep track of all of your favorite listings. Collections can be public or made private, and they’re easily edited, reordered, and shared.<p>Submissions If you find that we’re missing a result for a particular query, you can easily submit it as a suggestion. We’ll review it, and publish it if it makes the cut.<p>Current Limitations •It’s currently English only. •We don’t handle searches that start with “Best way..” or “Best settings ..” or “Best route..” very well. •Also, searches for professionals (doctors, etc,) and recipes have issues.<p>I’m sure there are a lot more we’re missing.<p>I&#x27;d love for you to try and it and let us know what you think.<p>Thank you, Tyler

I dunno, sorry, but it honestly seems kinda spammy and it doesn&#x27;t tell me why I should trust any of the results... it looks and works like any other SEO-optimized &quot;best of&quot; spam site :(<p>&quot;best national park&quot; = Teton, Bryce, Zion... why does Yellowstone get 3&#x2F;5 stars? No idea<p>&quot;air fryer&quot; = random products with generic descriptions, several of which are 3&#x2F;5 stars (out of the dozens of air fryers available, why are the top 5 the mediocre ones? who&#x27;s saying they&#x27;re mediocre? No idea)<p>&quot;airline to fly to thailand&quot; = two of the five results aren&#x27;t even airlines<p>&quot;tech forum&quot; = nearly all useless spam sites<p>&quot;place to get programming help&quot; = takes forever to load, but actually returned useful results (kudos!)<p>&quot;restaurants near me&quot; (autosuggested, pushed enter like it said) = nothing happened. UI bug that doesn&#x27;t select the entry if you push enter instead of clicking on it<p>&quot;awd suv&quot; = many aren&#x27;t even cars, and the ones that are just have manufacturer&#x27;s descriptions instead of any useful comparison<p>I was excited to try your service, but to be honest, I probably would never use this again after this experience. I would not consider this even early alpha quality, much less beta, because its result sets are largely not trustworthy. The signal to noise ratio is way too low, and your algorithm is totally opaque, and there are no visible signals for me to use to evaluate the quality of your results. If I didn&#x27;t have foreknowledge of a topic, I would have no way to determine whether to trust your results. Of the topics I AM familiar with, your results were not very convincing... at all. Sorry to be harsh, I hope you guys keep working on this and making it better... but maybe don&#x27;t make it public yet until it gets much, much better? The first impression was negative for me.

The trickiest thing with this is what qualifies as &quot;best&quot;. Most people might have an idea in their heads but that idea might not translate into the search itself so unfortunately have no way of knowing. Personally, I would be interested in a search engine that surfaces meaningful comparisons

I see a case where I can use this app like each minute, and I think is a niche that can be useful for you too: places.<p>A kindof trip advisor, but I guess that&#x27;s also tricky because you will face the wall of the fake ratings.<p>The upvote feature although I see also why its behind login and the steps, maybe it will be worth to shorten also the process to upvote. Because as it is right now you will need a really committed community to upvote or downvote.<p>I will use this as a main search for a while when I try to find stuff and see how it behaves and let you know!

Love that more of these little search alternatives are cropping up. Try suggesting search queries that <i>do</i> perform well on the page or as a watermark in the search box if you&#x27;re currently that limited. One thing that definitely turned me off were the silly graphics over the picture under the privacy pledge; it makes it look like a joke when it should be serious because people who care about it <i>really</i> care.

Results seem pretty spammy to be honest.<p>Tried searching for a certain type of software and the results just aren&#x27;t relevant. Most aggressively marketed and SEO&#x27;d stuff is on top and the actually good stuff is not even on the list :-&#x2F;

I&#x27;ve searched for the best hotel in Barcelona and the W hotel came out on top. At least you got that right!<p>Then I searched for the best shirt for men and it gave me Uniqlo and Everlane - okay. Then it followed that up with Brooklinen (luxury bed sheets), J Crew (A woman&#x27;s clothing store), a search results page for amazon.com for search query &quot;Men&#x27;s Flannel Shirts&quot;. Not very great.<p>Another thing is the star rating. &quot;Based on public opinion&quot; means nothing to me without some context and sources.

What ratings are you using to determine which things are &quot;best&quot;?

Answers for &quot;Best Programming Language&quot;:<p>Javascript is #1 and Java is #2. C is #4, Rust doesn&#x27;t even make top 10.<p>Discuss in groups.

I should also mention that very niche subjects that are not discussed often don&#x27;t yield the best results.
