Definition
Content providers are categorized in SEM-BIC. The following types of content providers are available:
- Change agent

- Internet search engine
- News service
- Online database

Homepages can be checked in various ways using a change agent (for example formatting, content, references...). The content is of most importance in a business environment.
Change agents must first be configured. To do this you load the internet page and make the necessary settings.
Internet Site
This concerns the Web site for example of a competitor. Since entry takes place ove the homepage of the site, specifying the latter makes sense.

BIC enables an automization in the Editorial Workbench for this, provided that information requirements are defined in search criteria. To parametrize queries automatically, you must define information on the query syntax for every search engine.
