aol.+com search did not work- Why? wwwaolcom, Sorry, no information- Why?

So you have heard of AOL, fired up the trusty Internet Explorer and typed one of the following phrase's in the search bar, aolcom, aol.com, httpaol.com, httpaol, aolcom mail,or perhaps wwwaolcom, hit search, "---" Eh, Not what you expected, WHY?

You are not alone, over 19,500,000 people a year type in wwwaolcom, over 17,900,000 type in aolcom, and 2,600,000 enter aolcom.mail, and many more aolcom.email, all with the same result, Confusion.

The problem is two-fold, the solution is easy.

Let us have a look at one phrase in particular and you can apply the same solution to the others. When you typed in wwwaolcom, you will probably have entered this into a white text box somewhere in the top third part of your browser which may by default have an AOL or MSN webpage showing. This is actually a search text box where you need to type in what you are searching for as a term. Using wwwaolcom as an example, if you had typed in just aol, you would have found the search engine coming back with a myriad of pages that have the term aol on their pages and then you could have selected what interests you. The search text box is where you type in, as an example a phrase like "acne and acupunture". Hit the search button and bingo, several relevant sites will be shown.

The last part of the solution is in the spelling of wwwaolcom. wwwaolcom should in fact be written as follows, http://www.aol.com/ . You were mighty close, but computers are wickedly logical and a missing forward slash often equals despair.

In conclusion;

1- Search phrases go in the search text box,
2- Addresses go in the top address bar,
3- Addresses need to be spelt correctly.

wwwaolcom corrected is http://www.aol.com/, aol.+com corrected is http://www.aol.com/, httpaol.com corrected is http://www.aol.com/, wwwaolcom is www.aol.com and aolcom corrected is http://www.aol.com/. Happy surfing!
