TOP 1 TUESDAY
Search engines have come to play a vital role in our daily lives. When’s the last time you used your browser? Probably today…
Most of us can describe ourselves as ‘compulsive googlers’. Don’t know where to start with opening up your first business, “just Google it”.
1. Google
Google is an American multinational technology company specializing in Internet-related services and products. These include online advertising technologies, search, cloud computing, and software.
2. Bing
“Microsoft is talking over the web. Bing, MSN, and yahoo are powered by Bing and Microsoft.. My favorite thing about Bing is the Search and Rewards.”
3. Yahoo
“As much as I dislike Yahoo and Bing, I think they deserve more votes. Google’s search is very restrictive, censoring many sites that go against their “liberal” agenda. Yahoo doesn’t do this, and neither does Bing. Don’t believe me, search “Do vaccines cause autism? ” on Google, and then search the same thing on Bing or Yahoo.”
4. DuckDuckGo
“Clutter Free search. I have checked all these search engine listed here but found DuckDuckGo more efficient than others. Moreover It does not track you, like Google. The Cons are: Limited image search, limited video search, can’t see IMDB or Rotten Tomatoes rating directly on search page (like Google, Bing and Yahoo), If you are scholar and need the raw data then It’s not good for you. It gives the best results with best answer.”
5. Ask
“I always use this search engine, just a clean and good results page. I like it’s layout. And it must be said that it returns better results than Google.”
6. AOL Search
7. DogPile
“I know that it doesn’t look great to a lot of people, but I love it. Try DogPile, not silly old Ask. This was number 3 in the worst search engines list. THIRD! Probably because of the name and the look. Ask and Bing are just terrible. This and Google are the best ones.”
8. Ecosia.org
“Ecosia is an amazing search engine. I used to be part of Environmental Club at school, and I would use it all the time. But for some reason my school blocked it. I was really annoyed. I couldn’t believe the school were actually preventing us from helping the planet.”
9. Yandex
Yandex. We find everything. (Yes this is their slogan)
10. Startpage
“Private search engine, created in 1998. Originally Had a database, but they looked at it and said why do we have this if we don’t use it? And removed it. I think Startpage is a pretty good search engine, as I would choose it as my second search engine of choice after DuckDuckGo. So, Startpage is pretty good if you ask me.”
