  1. Wow, I thought I knew of every search engine, but I was surprised at the 3 that I had never heard of. I remember when ask.com was around and it was my favorite until google caught up. I strongly believe that there is no search engine that surpasses google. Bing is a decent search engine, however, they drew me in with their point-earning program. The program is nice, but after using their search engine for 1 day, I missed google. Bing gives some of the same results, but I found that half of them were unhelpful and irrelevant versus google that gives 90 percent more of relevant results.

    1. Hi Nicole, thanks for your comment! I agree with you that Google is widely regarded as the leading search engine. Its comprehensive and relevant search results have made it the go-to choice for many users. While Bing offers a point-earning program, you found that the search results were less helpful and relevant compared to Google. It’s always interesting to explore different search engines and see how they stack up.

      Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experiences!
