On September 26, 1996, the Rambler.ru domain was registered. The search engine himself appeared on the Internet a couple of weeks later, on October 8: for several years he will become one of the leading Runet resources.

Exactly a year later, on September 23, 1997, the Yandex search engine was first announced . According to Arkady Volozh , the corresponding search technology was developed by the mid -nineties. In 1996, they tried to sell it to Rambler, and after the refusal they decided to make their site. According to LiveInternet, today Yandex has more than 62 percent of the search engines in Runet, and Runbler has 1.3 percent, despite the fact that the latter has been working on the Yandex search engine since 2011.

In general, the countdown can be made from different dates, depending on what to consider the beginning: in March 1996, the research project of Larry Page and Sergey Brin, who formed the basis of the search engine. On September 4, 1997, the Google.com domain was registered, and a year later, on September 15, 1998, Google Inc. was registered. In the corporation itself, the birthday was celebrated on September 7, then on September 27. Since 2005, the last date has been established.
