Decipher Your Sponsored Search Results

When you do a search, how do you know where to go? Usually, the first result you see is the closest match to what you want (based on how often that phrase occurs, or how prominent that phrase is on that page). On the right side, you'll see sponsored links near the top of the list. These links are basically advertisements triggered by your search.
Shockwave

A set of programs that lets certain animated elements of a site play in your browser. (Also see ActiveX® and Flash.) Sometimes a site will ask if you have Shockwave®, Flash, or ActiveX®. This means your Web browser will need that programming language to view some of the content on the site.
