contents The exponential growth of information source on the web and in turn continuing technological progress of searching the information by using tools like Search Engines gives rise to many problems for the user to know which tool is best for their query and which tool is not. At this time Metasearch Engine comes into play by reducing the user burden by dispatching queries to multiple search engines in parallel and refining the results of these search engines to give the best out of best by doing superior job on their side. These engines do not own a database of Web pages rather they send search terms to the databases maintained by the search engine companies, get back results from all the search engines queried and then compile the results to be presented to the user. In this paper, we describe the working of a typical metasearch engine and then present a comparative study of traditional search engines and metasearch engines on the basis of different parameters and show how metasearch engines are better than the other search engines.
