The search engine offers access to so called !bangs that you can use to redirect your search directly to a supported site. Search results are not personalized, and users are not tracked when using the search engine. For Ghacks, you find suggestions such as software, windows or Google listed there that can be appended to the search phrase with a click. Search suggestions on the right can help you redefine the search. This sponsored link is clearly distinguishable from the rest of the results. You can disable that box in the search settings.īelow the box is either the official site, outlined with a special button for better visibility, or a sponsored link result. The box links to Wikipedia and the official site, as well as related categories on the Duck Duck Go search engine. It is a quick one-liner that provides you with basic information about the site, service or name. The search results - often - begin with information at the top that are taken from Wikipedia. It is what Google has been a long time ago, a search engine that concentrates on search, and not on shoving advertisement and Google service promotions down the user's throat. What I really like about Duck Duck Go is its simplicity. There have been searches where Google could not provide me with results that I was looking for. Let me start the review by saying that I still have to switch to Google or Bing sometimes to get the results that I want. I switched to Duck Duck Go about two weeks ago and have not looked back since. Complex search queries usually yielded results pages that would not help me in my research. It too had the same issues that Bing had unfortunately. I moved to Ixquick and liked what I saw in the beginning.
