The editor will share with you what the portal refers to. I hope you will get something after reading this article. Let's discuss it together.

A portal refers to a website that organizes, stores and presents information from different sources in a uniform form. Users can filter and obtain all the content published within the portal site according to the information source, information type, keyword search, and other ways.

A portal refers to a large website that leads to some kind of comprehensive Internet information resources and provides related information services. Mainly provide news, search engines, chat rooms, electronic bulletin boards, e-mail, e-commerce, online games, web space and other services. That is, the "portal".

According to the location and jurisdiction of the website, portal websites can be divided into two types: local area network portals and Internet portals. According to the distinction between founders and target users, it can be roughly divided into personal portals, government portals, enterprise portals, professional portals, classified information websites, comprehensive portals and so on.

Now, the term "portal" is narrowly used to refer to the Internet integrated portal, which involves all aspects of the daily life of the target users. such as news, finance and economics, sports, entertainment, science and technology, fashion, real estate, medical and other areas of information. The larger integrated portals also provide some ancillary services, such as network access, user registration system, e-mail, e-commerce, online community, online games, web space and so on.

However, early "portals" such as Yahoo, AOL and Excite mainly provided navigation and search services. Navigation sites also provide news pages, but because they do not store content on their own servers, but link externally to the source site, such sites are not generally considered to be portals.

Generally speaking, a portal should ensure that most of the content pointed to by its home page link is stored on its own server, and that there is a uniform layout and navigation information between different pages. declare to people that this is information from the same website. To do this, portals usually grab information from different news or sources, copy and paste it into their own site, rather than providing links directly.

Both Internet and LAN portals usually have an internal retrieval function that allows users to enter keywords to search for the content they contain. For Internet integrated portals, this search is generally Internet-wide, so they may cooperate with Google, Bing, Yahoo and other large search engines to launch search business.

Portal classification:

1. Search engine portals

The main function of this kind of websites is to provide powerful search engines and other network services, which are relatively rare in China.

Comprehensive portal websites are mainly news information and entertainment information.

The website is an integrated website based on news, supply and demand, products, exhibitions, industry navigation and recruitment.

2. Local life portal

This kind of website is the most popular nowadays, mainly based on local information, including local information, online shopping in the same city, classified information, marriage and dating, job recruitment, group purchase, word-of-mouth merchants, Internet navigation, living community and other channels. the network also contains electronic atlas, perpetual calendar, map channels, music boxes, online movies and television, coupons, discount information, travel information, hotel information and other very practical functions.

3. Personal Portal

A personal portal is a website that usually provides personalized functions and provides visitors with a way to other content. It is designed to use different numbers and types of distributed applications, middleware and hardware to provide services from many different sources. In addition, the enterprise portal is designed for sharing and collaboration in the workplace. For further business-driven requirements, portal content can work on multiple platforms, such as personal computers, personal digital assistants (PDA), and mobile / mobile phones.

4. Portal websites in narrow sense and broad sense

In the sense, the portal websites that people understand mainly refer to some comprehensive websites, which are relatively professional and involve a single content of vertical websites. The difference between the two seems to be vividly understood as: the difference between the supermarket (supermarket) and the specialty store (Exclusive Shop), the former has many brands and commodity types, while the latter is relatively single. However, strictly speaking from the birth of the concept of Internet portal and the literal meaning of the portal, various types of websites can become portal websites, because literally, the portal itself should be a means and medium. through this medium to appreciate the thousands of network world, then the so-called portal should not discriminate against the type and amount of content.
