If you are using a search engine such as Google or Bing, you may encounter problems such as 'The information you want to know is not displayed in the search results' or 'The advertisement is displayed at the beginning and it is difficult to find the information you are looking for'. If you use the up-and-coming search engine ' You.com ', you can customize the display order of the search results to your liking and realize a comfortable internet surfing environment, so I actually tried using it.

Allrecipes ' and ' Food Network' are displayed in a row. On You.com, instead of 'searching across a myriad of websites' like Google and Bing, 'determine the right website from the search terms and display a link to the relevant page of that website. You can search for information on the Internet in the form of 'to do'.



If you change the search term, the website displayed in the search results will also change. For example, if you search for 'bitcoin', a chart of virtual currencies such as Bitcoin will be displayed at the top, and the corresponding page and news site of Wikipedia will be displayed below it.
