Monash University research finds Bing and Ecosia delivered substantially more professionally produced news in the top 50 results compared with Google

The director of the Climate Change Communication Research Hub, Associate Professor David Holmes, said the results demonstrated the importance of news media to search engines, with the top search terms clearly reflecting that people were trying to learn more about current affairs topics.

“It is in the interests of search engines to show news sites because that brings users who are in search of trusted and useful quality content,” he said. “These results suggest that Google’s competitors are well able to deliver that kind of professional content.”

Don't be fearful of change, sometimes you end up even better off. So experiment a little.
