We’ve added a new recipe resource to the V3GGIE search engine. Fat Free Vegan Recipes is exactly what it sounds like. This web site is filled with recipes contributed by its users. It’s nice to have more vegan options. Here’s an example of their recipes: Bean Spread with Italian Herbs.
Adding new resources
The websites used as resources on V3GGIE have to pass certain standards.
- They must include original content
- They must have a good depth of information
- They should either stand alone or allow crawling without getting undesired information.
That last part is the most difficult. A web site like Epicurious has great vegetarian recipes. But it also introduces noise into the results. V3GGIE is only looking at the vegetarian section of their site, but it could also pick up results from the non-vegetarian sections. I’d like to search for corn chowder and not receive any clam chowder recipes. This is the goal of this search engine. Fine tuning the resource list is the key.
Buzzillions.com is a site that I’ve considered adding to the V3GGIE resource list. It’s a product site that aggregates reviews and product descriptions. They have a nice section of Vegan products. However, it’s difficult to add them to the resource list and not introduce non-vegetarian/vegan products in the results.
I’ve also received feedback to add more personal sites. Unfortunately, the content is either too shallow or too specialized for general use. Due to technical reasons, I have to keep the resource list below a certain level.
