A method starts with submitting an internet protocol address to a web
search engine so that the location of a user can be determined. Then, a
user inputs one or more keywords that can be used by the web search engine
to compare with all of its generated indexes. After searching various
indexes, the web search engine may find multiple uniform resource locators
that identify various servers that contain information that may be
relevant to the user's search. Then, the web search engine uses an
internet protocol mapping table, that is generated by the web search
engine along with other data regarding various uniform resource locators
prior to performing the requested search, to correlate the uniform
resource locators with the geographical address of the server. Afterwards,
the web search engine is able to sort the results of the search using the
distance between the uniform resource locators and the user. Once the user
has this information it is much simpler to determine which uniform
resource locator may correlate with an easy to travel to business. This
feature will enhance existing web search engines and thus, further
increase the expanding popularity of using the internet to gather useful
information.
