Brave Search hits 14m QPD, takes aim at Google

This week's Search Engine Land is brought to you by: Brave [Brave Search]() is the fastest-growing search engine since Bing. In its first year alone, Brave Search had 2.5 billion queries, and just set a new high of 14+ million queries per day (QPD). It’s delivering highly relevant results—from its own index—and innovating where others grow stale. All while sticking true to core values: To make a private, unbiased, better alternative to Big Tech. If you haven’t tried Brave Search yet, here are three reasons you should… Innovation While Big Tech search grows stale, Brave Search [keeps innovating](). Just this year it introduced: - [Discussions]()—A way to combat SEO spam by showing conversation threads (e.g. from Reddit) directly in SERP. - [Goggles]()—A way for anyone, or any community of people, to create sets of rules and filters to constrain the searchable space and / or alter the ordering of search results. And later this year, it’ll introduce the Brave Search API, giving any developer access to relevant, enhanced results from billions of web pages. Independence Brave Search delivers results from its own, built-from-scratch index of the Web. It combats the bias, filtering, and censorship of Google and Bing (and the engines—like DuckDuckGo—that need this Big Tech to run). Brave can offer this independence thanks to index-building tools like: - [Fallback Mixing]()—A way to anonymously check Google for the same query. - [Web Discovery Project]()—A way for [Brave browser]() users to opt in to anonymously contribute browsing data. Brave Search transparently shows an [independence score]() that marks what % of results come from Brave’s index. A score that’s ever growing. Unmatched privacy Brave Search doesn’t track you, your queries, or your clicks. That makes it impossible for Brave to share, sell, or lose your data—the data isn’t collected in the first place [TRY BRAVE SEARCH](#) [View in a browser]( [Search Engine Land] [() Learn about additional advertising/sponsorship opportunities [here](.
