Google was the king for a long time (simple interface and relevant results with no ads) but in the last few years it went the way of 90s search engines like Excite.com. Google now yields highly filtered results and paid ads, rarely gives you what you are looking for and the algorithm is so bad, if you search up a specific topic, it's going to give you mostly unrelated results. I use duckduckgo as it seems to still be ok but the results can still be off the wall and limited. Bing sucks too.

That's great and all but what do you use when you want to get good results?

Hardly ever have to use search engines nowadays since AI has taken over.

Google is a data mining company. (So are all of your favorite social media companies and the DMV)

I have no problems with Bing.

Knowing how to correctly utilize keywords is essential for obtaining good results.
