What are all the search engines available online?

I'm a novice and have been using only the most "marketed" search engines.

Would someone kindly provide all of us the variety of search engines available?

PLEASE *smiley on knees* :bounce:

2. Seriously the only one you really need is Google however...

here is a list of a few others that I have bookmarked. Seriously though once you get good at phrasing you're searches with Google, using strings "" and boolean (AND,OR,NOT) if needed, you will usually find that you won't need anything else. Google also has a number of other specialized searches that are very useful:
