Alleba is a Philippine web search engine. It was created in 2001 by Filipino web designer Andrew dela Serna. Alleba started as a project to index the best Filipino websites in a directory format and is one of the first local directories behind those such as Yehey and Tanikalang Ginto. In 2004 it was named the WWW Virtual Library of the Philippines. Alleba has since then helped Philippine websites gain more exposure on the Internet.
As on June 19, 2012 the search engine seems no longer being maintained, any search entry will end up with a database error.
