The Web of Mystery is a link-based portal site allowing visitors to access the best mystery-related sites on the world wide web.

Why Should I Use
The Web of Mystery
Instead of a Search Engine?

Search engines are a powerful way to peruse the web; however, there are drawbacks to this search technique.

First, even the best search engines contain a large percentage of results that have absolutely nothing to do with your intended search subject.  Getting four thousand hits on a subject is overwhelming.  In addition, how many of those hits contain accurate or useful information?

Second, search engines do not allow you to browse topics related to your subject.  For example, the Author Sites contains numerous links to authors you already know.  But what if you are looking for a new author?  Search engines do not allow you to browse through lists of mystery authors as you would a bookstore.

So why should you use The Web of Mystery for your mystery-related searches?  Simple: This is where the best mystery web sites are listed.  Moreover, when you don't know what you want, it's probably here.
