Results for letters L, P & T did not have the letters in thier URL, but they were quite prominent in the page titles. When it comes to numbers, – 5, 6, 7 & 9 were not present in the URL!.

Wondering what algorithm is used to rank these pages!

    Interesting! What prompted you to do this ?
    Btw, is not Agilent Technologies the first company for A (or is it just for trends or something ?)

    RK, A is the stock symbol of Agilent technologies. Google displays the stock value (with a trend) if you key in the symbol. Eg : INFY.

    I accidentally typed the character ‘G’ in the address bar in Firefox, and it opened up gmail! So, that made me wonder about the other characters!
