First in a series of new perspective read me.

When you open Fat Search you will see it layout
like this. On the left side at the top you'll see
Recent Fat Searches: Followed by what you searched for. In my example I used web design so web design will be underneath Recent Fat Searches.

Next down the line is:
Weight Control Panel:
Engine:
Under this column is the list of search engines.
Weight:
Under this column is where you put the weight to tell the program how much priority to give the Search Engine. You can enter any number up to 1000
here is an example of what I did using just the default settings of 100.

You notice this site still comes up on top, but noticed the Total weight. See the difference?

The numbers like #1 #2 and so on are how this site is ranked on a particular SE. The Total weight is the occurrence weight. The higher the occurrence weight the higher a particular site is listed on all major SE. The lower the number will give a particular site a higher number.

Look to the right and you'll see occurrence weight
set to a default of 100 change this number to whatever you like to see the difference.

You need to play around with Fat Search to get the feel of it. Just enter your keywords remembering to click the up date button located on the bottom
left side every time you make change to the engine weight and occurrence weight this will give you the update data.

So How does Fat Search Help? One way it can help you is by seeing what kind of sites your keywords
would produce, how they rank, what they do to earn this rank, and so on.

A good tool to use with Fat Search is Nick's Index
bomb. Index bomb show how many pages a particular site has indexed in all the major SE. It can show also how many pages of your site is indexed. You can take the two (one at a time though) and do a lot of research into your sites and those of high ranking sites.

At the bottom of Fat Search you'll see many more sites and their rank by clicking on the Next button, simi liar to Fat Bomb. Below that are links based on your Keywords in SF. Later I'll explain how to put your affiliate Id in.

If you have any questions pertaining to Fat Search please post them here and not on the other categories. It helps and your questions will get answered faster.

Next stop would be Newz Tuel.
