Google has introduced a new Preferred Sources Feature for Indian users. Through this, users can choose their favorite news sources and their content will appear first in Top Stories.
Preferred Sources Feature: In the world of technology, Google is constantly improving the user experience with new features. In this series, the company has introduced a new feature for Indian users called the Preferred Sources Feature. With the help of this feature, users can now read news directly from their favorite news websites and they will appear first in the Top Stories section.
Preferred Sources Feature: What is it and why is it special?
The main objective of Google's new feature is to give users a personalized and customized search experience. This means that if a user likes a particular news portal, they can choose it as their preferred source. After this, whenever they search for a news topic on Google, the content of that site will appear with advanced priority in the Top Stories section.
Google says that with this feature, users can choose as many sources as they want according to their interest and need, and can also remove them at any time. This means that now every user can customize their news feed according to their preference and trust.
How does this feature work?
The working method of the Preferred Sources Feature is simple and user-friendly. When you search for any news in Google Search, a new icon appears on the right side of Top Stories. By clicking on this icon, you can choose any site as your preferred source.
After selecting, the content of that site will appear in Top Stories with advanced priority. Despite this, Google will continue to show articles from other media outlets as well, so that users can also get diversity and a broad perspective.
What benefits will users get?
