Is Google the Only Search Engine Worth Attention?

When you need to find something on the Internet, you use Google. It became so popular that now its name is used as a verb. When searching for something, you Google it. Does it mean that there are no other ways to find anything online? Google is just a search engine, and if you are tired of using it, you have an alternative. Here is a list of other options to use instead.

Bing

Almost as popular as Google, and second when it comes to market shares, is a search engine called Bing. It has been developed by Microsoft, so you might be sure of its functionality and safety. Bing is as easy to use as Google and allows its users to search for the same things in the same manner. You can type anything, and the search results will be the same. If you want to play, e.g., in an online casino, you can write the phrase, and you will be directed to the platforms like Asiabet. There, you will find the safe options to play in India, alongside with explanations of the games and most importantly, the legal  regulations.

Why use Bing instead of Google if those are practically the same engines? The former has better-developed video searches that also allow users to see a preview with sound. What is more, Bing grants points for every search, and the users might later exchange them for attractive prizes.

Yahoo

The next in line (meaning the third in terms of market shares) search engine is Yahoo. It’s operating online since 1994, and it was the most popular tool for internet searches in the 1990s and 2000s. As a search engine, Yahoo provides its users with a variety of results, often pulled out from the sources Google does not reach to. If you are searching for some online tools to try out, you can see how Yahoo works for you. It’s a good option for those who use other services provided by Yahoo, such as email or Yahoo Answers.

Yandex

Remaining in the top five search engines on the market, we need to mention Yandex. It’s based in Russia and offers other services online, like apps, navigation, and online advertisement. There is also a cloud, and if you are using Yandex as a search engine, you can easily search there for your files. This, instead of Google, is a great option for businesses that want to reach for potential customers in Russia and the west Asian area.

DuckDuckGo

DuckDuckGo is the one for those who strongly care about their privacy online. For this search engine, the security of its users is a priority. It was founded in 2008, and it makes use of around 400 different sources to bring the best possible search results. What does it mean? DuckDuckGo does not store personal data nor record your IP address. It also avoids using filter bubbles. In other words, the search results are not based on your previous browse history.

StartPage

Another search engine that bets on user’s privacy is StartPage. Most importantly, your IP address is not recorded anywhere, and the cookies do not save information about your behavior to use it for better personalization. StartPage allows internet users to browse anonymously, which leads to results suitable for the phrase you have written, not selected on the basis of your browser history.

Ecosia

There are probably search engines for everyone, whatever their requirements. Ecosia was created with environmental issues in mind. Its main goal is to prevent the dangers that climate change brings. For every user’s search, there is a reward for nature. The company donates a huge part of its profit (about 80%) to tree plantations. That means that for every 50 searches, one tree is planted somewhere in the world. Ecosia also focuses on user’s privacy. It does not create your profile while you are using it, and recorded data are deleted after a week.

Conclusions

As you can see, there are numerous possibilities to replace Google with a different search engine. The range is wide, so whatever is your priority – ecology, privacy – you will find something suitable. Google is just the most popular one, but not the only available. The majority of these tools are somehow connected, for example, Ecosia or DuckDuckGo use Bing to power them, but they are different engines with various possibilities and options. You do not have to worry that the results will be poorer or less accurate than in Google. All the search engines described above rely on diverse sources for your benefit.
