About YemenPortal.net

YemenPortal.net is a public news gathering, sorting and searching engine similar to news.google.com except that it is dedicated to Yemen. The portal is currently exclusively assigned to crawl and index news items from dozens of Yemeni news websites, but will in the future expand to include other sections such as business, tourism, and community-related services.

YemenPortal.net’s search engine has a variety of ways in which information could be displayed and sorted. Users could browse the latest news from a specific politically affiliated set of sources (such as opposition for example). Results could be sorted based on updated time, the source, the times they were read, etc. On average the crawling engine could fetch and parse up-to a thousand articles per hour.

Through YemenPortal.net, users interested in Yemen's news can find the latest news with minimum effort. Content is refreshed at least once every 30 minutes, making it possible to find news items a few minutes after source news websites publish them. The portal also offers RSS feed subscription, which is a powerful means to stay updated automatically.

Yemenportal.net applies the latest publicly available technology in retrieving, parsing, and indexing information. It has a flexible dynamic interface that allows users to maximize their benefit by displaying news items in a customizable fashion, while remaining faithful to the copyright material as it maintains links to the sources and promotes them through exposure to new or unfamiliar users..
