Neeva - An ad free search

 

 

(PC: Neeva)

In recent times, when we are searching about something in google or any other search engine, most of the result is only ads or paid results. According to a study from SparkToro, between 2016 and 2018, the click-through-rate of paid search ads on mobile devices increased by nearly 70%. There have been several changes to Google search results to favor ads. Useful search results were pushed down the page to squeeze in more advertisements, and privacy was sacrificed for online tracking tools to keep tabs on what ads people were seeing. Here we welcome the search engine named “NEEVA” without any ads and paid search results.
