I would agree but, just out of interest, I got #1 on DDG for 'slang dictionary' and #2 on google uk? That's really unexpected for any site not using https.



It's the #1 for my searches at DDG, but I can't find it on the first 3 pages on google. (How do I tell ads apart on google nowadays? The 3rd link is for Urban Dictionary, but I think it's an ad.)

Remember that google results are completely personalized. Nobody else sees what you see.


I understand Google results are personalized but for a site I never visited before and a search term I never used until just now - that would be very impressive?


Dunno it might be more interesting to compare actual slang searches. In my case "slang mula" returns:

- no5 in DDG

- page 3 in google

Having said that I keep being disappointed with Google search results in general and use DDG these days instead. It might be related to their algo becoming shittier with time.
