DuckDuckGO

DuckDuckGo :  BEST SEARCH ENGINE

DuckDuckGo is an Internet search engine that uses information from many sources, such as crowdsourced websites like Wikipedia and from partnerships with other search engines like YandexYahoo!Bing and WolframAlpha to obtain its results.

DuckDuckGo was founded by Gabriel Weinberg.The company is based in Paoli, Pennsylvania
United States in Greater Philadelphia.The company name originates from the children's game duck,
 duck, goose.
DuckDuckGo's results are a compilation of "about 50" sources,including Yahoo! Search BOSS, Wikipedia, Wolfram AlphaBing, its own Web crawler, the DuckDuckBot, and others.

DuckDuckGo is built primarily upon search APIs from various vendors. Because of this, TechCrunch characterized the service as a "hybrid" search engine. At the same time, it produces its own content pages, and thus is similar to MahaloKosmix and SearchMe.

DuckDuckGo vs. Others

1.As we experienced Google is the high speed search engine but when we look at the search result it shows a millions of results in some milliseconds.most of results are unwanted ads,websites etc.But  DuckDuckGo
shows only wanted results only with less ads.
2.Other search engines tracks us but DuckDuckGo don't do that.
3.It also have millions of results like Others.
4.They don't bubble the results.
5.They also shows the results from other search engine if we want.


Features

Even though Google’s search homepage doesn’t refers to it. This includes everything from video and image search to things like built-in mapping. As a substitute for these things DuckDuckGo allows users to search other websites from their interface.
Eg: image search can be done from both Google and Bing, though obviously the service won’t be able to guarantee that those searches are anonymous once the user has arrived at their search destination.
