When diversifying, you might want to optimize your site for DuckDuckGo – a privacy-first search engine. Wondering why DuckDuckGo… According to SimilarWeb, it is already the 2nd most popular search engine on mobile devices in the US! It also handles over 90 million daily search queries. Now, the tricky part is that just because your site is optimized for Google doesn’t always mean it’s optimized for DuckDuckGo as well. My team [put together a detailed article]( on how to tap into organic traffic from this growing platform. Read this article and let me know your thoughts by replying to this email. New WordPress Guides on WPBeginner: - Are you wondering what are the best WordPress slider plugins?
