Site: This is the name
of the site where the search results are listed
(except in the case of Inktomi and Direct Hit
which only serve results to other
sites).
Main results: These
are the results that show up in the body of the
first page (and possibly subsequent pages) of
results. A number of paid listings will sometimes
show above them.
Paid results: These
are results that are paid for by advertisers,
generally in a bid model. Sometimes, paid results
are also the main listings.
Fill results: These
are listings that show if after the main results,
or if no main results exist for a
search.
Directory results:
These are listings that show in a directory
format. Sometimes, directory listings are also the
main listings.
