agree both Gustin and Tek.
duckduckgo gives more privacy by not saving your searches BUT the sites you then goto are a whole new case
Google is best

a problem I have with some searches is getting results swamped by the
inept prior searches of those like myself that don't phrase  the best  search question

When stumped, just occasionally, typing a complete English sentence will save me
or give clues to better  search key words
