Google or Bing...Which One Gets Results?


For some time now, anyone who wanted answers went to Google. It was just a forgone conclusion. Now Microsoft has introduced Bing. This new search engine boasts things like so called smart searches and real time searching. Their adds, like this one, claim to end something called search engine overload.


While that sounds great, which search engine gets answers better?

The simple answer is this. If you are looking for sheer breadth of information on a topic, Google is still the place to go. In a variety of simple searches, Google produced more results than Bing. It also has a clean, organized and clutter free approach that makes it easy to use.


Bing comes into play when you are looking for travel, health, shopping or related searches. Bing has unique features that allow you to search multiple travel sites without leaving the search engine. It is also good at showing users relevant related searches. There is even a discount program that offers money back on some purchases when you buy through Bing.

In the end, it comes down to user preference. Bing offers some useful features but it can not replace Google.
