I mostly use the search engine from PCH. They keep promising me I'll win something, but it hasn't happened yet.  ;D
For images, though, I use Google.

Personally I still think Google is the best one out there.

Although I still tend to use Google, I really don't like any of the "major" search engines anymore.  Before they started messing with their search algorithms, I could type in 5 terms and get search results at the top of the list that actually matched all 5 of the terms.  Now I only get pages of results that match one or 2 of the 5 terms and have to scroll to page 25 to get to any relevant results because the search engine "thinks" I really only meant to search on those one or 2 "common" terms.

Basically I can't find anything on the internet that I used to be able to locate with current algorithms.  What happened to the basic concept of actually matching on all the terms typed in?    :BangHead:

Lately I have been using several different search engines.  I use to use Google all the time but I have found that the results do not seem as good a match as they use to be.  Right now I really do not have a preference.

I always use PAID search engines. They have multiple that pay you to search (some as much as 2 cents per search). Fusion cash searches with Yahoo, and it's pretty good!

Paid search inches such as swagbucks which I think actually uses Google.

I use google because that is where my email is and everything and I know how to use it. I have tried a few others but I don't like them

Post by: candyterrius on January 28, 2013, 06:19:38 pm

I prefer the creativity of Google. :heart: Next in line is Yahoo. A simple page layout is more appealing than a cluttered one. Yahoo should learn from Google.

I usually use google the most whenever I need to do a search.

Title: Re: which search engine do you like the most?
Post by: hollyromey on January 28, 2013, 08:22:36 pm

For web searches I used the paid to search toolbar but for finding images I always use google, I like their layout better.

I prefer Google. I find it very simple, easy to use, and fast. The results are always relevant to what I searched for too.

Title: Re: which search engine do you like the most?
Post by: sdecaro558 on January 29, 2013, 08:16:47 am

Google is still the best, as far as I can tell, and it's what I always use.  Bing can be good at times too.

I generally do searches in the FC toolbar and I think that's Yahoo.

Title: Re: which search engine do you like the most?
Post by: devilroljin on January 29, 2013, 12:30:00 pm

I have tried many, and continue to use a mixture of them. For extensive and no holds barred searching I use Google. For casual or informative use, I cling to FusionCash. For a specific information search, I'd use a specialized search engine; for example, if I'm looking for military information I use searchmil (dot) com, or if what I want is newspaper articles, I'd go to newslink (dot) org. Specialized search engines provide results other general purpose search engines do not. For everything else yahoo, bing, altavista or msn are OK.

Post by: dorannmwin on January 29, 2013, 12:46:09 pm

I tend to use the rewarding search engines being Fusion Cash and Swagbucks. The reason that I choose to do this is because of the fact that it also pays me to do the searches that I would be doing anyway.

Title: Re: which search engine do you like the most?
Post by: nhendrickson on January 29, 2013, 12:49:40 pm

I know many of the sites credit you for doing searches.  I just don't find the results as useful as doing a Google search though.  So it's something basic like a store locations or hours, I may use the site search feature.  It's fine for that.  Otherwise, it may or may not give me the information that I am looking for.

I use FC, AOL, Google, Firefox..........in fact, anything that is on my monitor when I want to search.

I really like Google search bar. Bing has my vote also because it is sometimes so quick to deliver what I'm looking for.

Title: Re: which search engine do you like the most?
Post by: deisha718 on January 29, 2013, 07:54:37 pm

I like Google because the search results seem to be more precise than others.  It's just my preference.

My hubby is a huge sucker for Google and Google Chrome. I like Bing a little more (partly because of the awesome images and facts they do every day!) But I use the Fusion Cash search bar 90% of the time.

Title: Re: which search engine do you like the most?
Post by: davidh121 on January 29, 2013, 11:29:24 pm

Google is straightforward and seems more customizable with my search criteria commands, but Bing seems to get me better search results. I never liked Yahoo's. I use to like the metacrawler in the 90s, but I guess I was fascinated only with the multiple search engine option.
