Introduction
Spinarak.net began as an idea after seeing Google Co-op, and realizing that a Pokémon-exclusive search engine would be an amazing tool. By including only the good sites and communities, it would let Pokémon fans cut through online stores and complete junk results pulled up by Google. We all know fansites have the best information, and I wanted something that would allow people to search JUST fansites for information. From that, I built up a site around it, focusing on my network of sites and services. Although it is an umbrella site for my whole network, Spinarak also includes searches from many other sites and communities, even those not affiliated with me. It's meant to be a great homepage for a Pokémon fan. It's got a search engine there for you to use, and links to my network of services and sites- just one click away. Easy and convient.
What is Spinarak.net? Well, you should have read the introduction. But it's half Pokémon-only search engine, and half Network. Overall, it serves as a good homepage for Pokémon fans.
Will anything new be added? The Network-half of Spinarak is always growing, so yes, things will always be added. Next up is a Fanfiction site for Pokémon writers! It will be awesome, trust me! Also, the Pokémon of the week is updated every week.
Why did it take so long?
Because I, pokejungle, am in Japan. I didn't have enough time to devote to the project, I apologize. Especially after I got everyone hyped up. It also was part Network, and I had to renovate a lot of my sites in coordination with the project, so it wasn't soley this site that kept me busy.
What exactly is the 'Network'?
The network is made of sites and services that belong to me, or one of the other sites. The sites so far include: PokeJungle, PKMN Sky, PokeEX, and Pokemon Center. The services are the ones listed on front with pictures: MMC, SCanvas, PChan, and #Safari. PokePress used to be a service, but has since closed. It may reopen. Our fanfiction site is down for maintnence and will be released next.
Why do you include other sites...?
At first, I was going to search ONLY my sites and services. Obviously, this would work well for me and direct traffic back to myself for the best results. Unfortunately, that really isn't the best for you. If I wanted to make a Pokemon search, I realized I had to include all the sites I felt offered good information for you, the user. Otherwise it wasn't worth much at all. So now what we have is a REAL Pokémon search, not just a mediocre one that comes just from me. So enjoy it!
