The web genre classification distinguishes between pages by means of their features such as style, presentation layout, etc rather than on the topic; improving search results returned to the user by providing genre class of a web page apart from topic. Hence, if a user is able to specify the genre of search like Help, FAQ, Wikipedia etc, chances of getting results in accordance to his interest are high. The classification of web pages into genre is a challenging task as the information is semi-structured, heterogeneous and dynamic. Therefore it is required to find appropriate features which describes web page in the context of genre to increase the genre classification and accuracy of the search result.
