 Hello everybody! In today's video, I'm going to tell you about five search engines as good as Google, and in some situations they can even beat the famous brand. I don't mean Yardex or Bing, there are search engines which can really outperform the well-known market leaders, though in a few things only. Here we go. In our channel and blog, you will find solutions to any problem, from installing an operating system or configuring it to fix impossible bugs and errors or optimizing mobile gadgets. Our specialists will answer any questions you ask in your comments under the videos or articles. What search engine do you use? Google? Yandex? Or maybe Bing? In addition to the three well-known names, there are many more search tools out there, and they can be an amazing alternative to commercial search engines spying on every click you make. 1. DuckDuckGo Quite a popular open-source search engine. It uses a result received from its own search bot and other sources. For example, Yahoo! Bing! Wikipedia. DuckDuckGo claims to be the search engine to ensure maximal privacy. It doesn't collect any user data, doesn't keep logs, so there is no such thing as search history, and using cookie files is restricted as much as possible. DuckDuckGo neither collects your personal data nor shares it, due to restrictions in its privacy policy. All large search engines try to personalize their search results based on what they know about the user, that is, you will only see the results that comply with your preferences, or which the search engine thinks are relevant for you. By contrast, DuckDuckGo is there to give you the real picture regardless of what you did on the Internet before. And it never shows you ads based on your previous search requests, unlike Google Yandex. When you open its settings, you can easily disable ads, set the region, enable HTPPS by default, specify settings for opening links, and even set up the search engine appearance. Almost every aspect can be configured the way you like it, and it's such a great feature. Not Evil. Not Evil is the search engine that looks for information inside TOUR, the well-known anonymous network. That is, it's a search engine you can use in your browser to serve the TOUR network. The first question you ask when you start a TOUR browser is, how do I get to find the website I need? In fact, it's very difficult to make a sound review of TOUR compatible search engines. It takes special methodology and metrics, which is something I don't have at the moment. So, before we continue, I'd like to warn you. Everything I'm going to say is only my personal opinion. In terms of overall functionality and quality, Not Evil is just as good as any other TOUR search engine, such as Grams, Torch, Fast, Candle, Ahemma, and others. Yet, it seems to be the most stable and easy to understand. It will never show you any ads, and there is no tracking either. Due to smart and continuously updated search algorithms, it is easy to find the necessary information. It can search for stuff in locations where Google, Yundex, and the like will never take you. Still, searching the so-called onion websites does not always come up to your expectations. After all, it's no Google or Bing with results sorted by tons of criteria like behavior, backlinks, and so on. With No Evil, things are way more complicated. Previously, it was known as TOUR search project, with quite a wide coverage of users. The search results are good, but there is so much to be improved yet. Another specialized search engine. It can search open resources for all kinds of sounds – home, nature, cars, people, and so on. This service supports only a few languages, but instead it features an impressive amount of tags even in the languages not supported, so you can still do some searching. The search results include sounds only. All sounds are available for download. You can even search by sample. If you need to find the sound of a musket firing, or a woodpecker working or Homer Simpson shouting, that's just the right place to go. The range of tags is extremely wide. Jokes aside, it looks like a specialized service clearly designed for a special circle of users. But who knows? What if you may need it one day? Vault from Alpha Vault from Alpha is a computational search engine, sometimes referred to as an answer engine. Instead of links to articles containing keywords, it gives you a ready answer to your query. For example, if you ask how many bytes in a megabyte, Vault from Alpha will show you comparison tables and sometimes even graphs. Unfortunately for some users from Eastern Europe, Vault from Alpha doesn't support Cyrillic languages. However, it is the best resource to search for facts and compute data. Vault from Alpha accumulates and systematizes knowledge from all fields, including science, culture, and entertainment. If the database already contains a ready answer to your query, the system shows it at once, and if it doesn't, it computes the result and then displays it. It only shows the required information and nothing else. If you are a student, analyst, journalist, or a search worker, you can use Vault from Alpha to search and compute data related to your activities. Certainly, this service is far from processing all queries in the best way possible. But it is constantly developing and becoming smarter every day. Boid reader Boid reader is the engine for text searching forums, question and answer websites, and other similar communities. It lets you narrow the field of searching to social media only. With special filters applied, you can quickly find posts and comments in accordance with the search criteria, language, date, and website name. Boid reader is a great tool when you need opinions from real users rather than advertising babble, or if you are interested in following a discussion. It's a very special search engine, but I'm sure many people all over the web will appreciate it. As the bottom line, I have to say that many alternative search engines tend to be sharply lived. Things are pretty easy. They can be in niche projects with a small circle of fans and users, which means questionable prospects of going commercial, or they may have none of that stuff at all. In any examples you have seen in this video, it's evident that such search engines either specialize in some narrow field which is so far not too important to get Google Index interested enough, or they are meant to test certain ideas which are not applied in typical search patterns yet. I'm sure that if searching, top becomes more popular, and at least 1% of Google users wants it, top services will start looking for ways to give the people what they are looking for. If the online audience behaves in the way to suggest that most users in a significant number of queries find results without user-dependent factors to be more relevant, Yandex or Google will respond quickly by providing this specific type of results more often. Truly, in many aspects the search engines I told you about have a long way to go before they really compete against the top products like Google and Yandex, and even Bing is too much for them. Yet, each of the unique services can offer you something that top search engines can't beat. That is all for now. Hit the Like button below and subscribe to Hetman Software Channel.
