37 Search Engines to Use Other Than Google

Looking for alternative search engines to Google? Here are the 37 best search engines other than Google.

As a bonus, I included several other specialty search engines that can help you find specific items like images and social media posts.

Best Alternative Search Engines

To start off our search adventure, let’s look at some general search engines beyond the top three — Google, Bing, and Baidu.

1. DuckDuckGo

The homepage of the DuckDuckGo search engine.

Concerned about online privacy? DuckDuckGo prides itself on being the search engine that does not track or personalize your searches and results. They even offer handy visual guides on Google tracking and filter bubbling.

If you’re an iOS user, you can set DuckDuckGo as the default search engine in Safari. It’s also an option for Safari on macOS.

2. Ecosia

The homepage of the Escosia search engine.

Want trees planted while you search? That’s what Ecosia does! Simply run your normal searches, and Ecosia will use its surplus income to support conservationist organizations that plant trees.

Don’t worry. You don’t have to sacrifice quality results to do good — Ecosia uses Bing and its own search algorithms.

3. Dogpile

The homepage of the Dogpile search engine.

If you want results from the top three search engines but don’t want to go to them individually, try Dogpile. Its results are pulled from the top three search engines without all the mess.

4. WolframAlpha

5. Gigablast

The homepage of the Gigablast search engine.

6. Startpage

The homepage of the Startpage search engine.

If you want to search without being tracked, Startpage is another solid option. It allows you to search without cookies or trackers. They even offer a Chrome plug-in so you can keep using Google — and protect your privacy.

AWS (Snow) | Sr. Software Engineer | REMOTE (US) and ONSITE (San Francisco)| Full-Time

I am founding the SF Bay Area office for AWS’s fledgling Snow business: https://aws.amazon.com/snow/

I am looking for senior engineers interested in working on a greenfield AWS product. If you are loathe to go through the sluggish leetcode-esque process associated with most FANG-ish companies, please reach out regardless. I am foremost interested in hiring technically excellent colleagues.

My team is responsible for solving a variety of distributed computing challenges for new products built on Snow. Here is a sample of some problem categories I am currently working on:

  - distributed computing against partitions without any network connectivity for long time periods
  - remote management of devices with low bandwidth and intermittent network connectivity
  - establishing correct and performant build pipelines for custom hardware devices deployed in remote areas

Highlights:

  - greenfield work on a well-capitalized emerging AWS product
  - actual customers who are eager to use the product, adding value and feedback to the development cycle
  - help define the technical merits, pace, and direction of the team for years to come at AWS’s scale
  - my team currently has no oncall, as we support hardware, disconnected devices, and evolving products currently being defined with customers
  - realistic path for accelerated career/technical growth within the context of a larger company

My team is in the office on Wednesday and Thursday of each week, otherwise remote. I am happy to hire experienced senior engineers into fully remote positions. If you are interested in speaking, please reach out to me at:

About me

I have worked professionally as an engineer and mathematician on low level cryptographic primitives, compiler development, and large scale distributed systems. I prioritize craftsmanship, clarity of thought, and correctness as levers against intractable and complex problems. In my spare time, I just finished reverse engineering some critical hardware circuits on my laptop’s motherboard to hack some custom behavior. I am now fixing and old Apple ][ Plus with the intent of writing some retro 6502 Sweet 16! I am also a pilot, tennis player, and an avid reader. I’d love to chat with you about any of those things if you’re interested.
