Marketing Information
DuckDuckGo is a privacy focused search engine that started in 2008. A few years after their founding it was uncovered that the NSA and FBI were spying on the internet habits and search histories of Americans. This revelation lead to a huge increase in usage for DuckDuckGo and set off a national conversation about online privacy that continues to this day. That company has guarded the secrets to ranking higher in their search engine and they don’t track keyword usage volume, only volume of daily searches.
Marketers can take advantage of DuckDuckGo in a few ways:
Organic Search (SEO)
Paid Search (PPC) – note this is powered by Bing Ads
