The search engine battle is alive and well. People often ask me two questions: which browser should I use and which search engine is best? I answer the browser question this way: “On my main Windows computer in the shop, I have ten (10) browsers installed. I often use them for specific functions. For example, I use Google Chrome when I want to work on my Google accounts. If I’m working on Microsoft accounts, I use Microsoft Edge.” (Note: I’ve done some posts on browser features you may not be using. You might want to check them out HERE<\/a><\/strong>.) Browser issues aside, this post is really about the search engine battle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before we move on, though, let’s clear up some definitions. A browser is software that converts web page code into something user-friendly. A search engine is a means of finding articles, pictures, and more on the Internet. The names we use are sometimes confusing. For instance, Google Chrome is a browser but Google Search is a search engine. Microsoft Edge is a browser while Bing is Microsoft’s search engine. DuckDuckGo’s browser and search engine are the same name! Nobody said the computing world is easy!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, let’s explore what search engines are available. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
