Hummingbird (software)

Hummingbird is a software tool developed by Google designed to improve how search engines understand and rank website content. Launched in 2013, it allows Google to better interpret the intent behind user queries and analyze web pages more contextually. This results in more relevant search results, especially for complex or conversational questions. Essentially, Hummingbird helps search engines deliver more accurate and meaningful answers by understanding the meaning behind words, rather than just matching keywords. This enhances the overall quality of search experiences for users.
