Links and Search Engines

This section is devoted to sites with financial and economic links as well as to search engines (to find your own links!). Many of the sites listed represent resources that I comb when searching for sites to include in Financial Resources on the Internet.

There are so many finance-related sites on the Web that nearly every listing of links is a bit different; each webmaster brings a different purpose and set of experiences to the creation of their site and thus creates a site with an unique outlook. Thus I don't truly believe that any site is either the "best" site (for all users) or is really complete.

The Dow Jones Business Directory and Resources for Economists on the Internet are both excellent sites for links. I'd start with these two and go from there.

Most search engines have categorized lists of links that are easy to use when you're not sure exactly what it is you're looking for. My favorite search engine is AltaVista. Maybe I'm old fashioned, but it does seem to give me the best results. If AltaVista fails I go to Yahoo.
